Solar power in the Europe Union has again demonstrated a stellar performance in 2021 despite adverse market conditions on various fronts - from
the continued negative effects of COVID-19 on our daily lives, to PV product supply shortages and consequent solar module price hikes.
As forecasted,demand for solar power in the European Unionhas grown significantly in2021. The 27 member states of the European Union saw around 25.9 GW of new solar PV capacity connected to their gridsin 2021, an increase of 34% over the 19.3 GW installed the year before. This growth makes 2021 not only another recordyear for solar in the EU, it was also the best year in history, taking place exactly one decade after the former record was set at 214 GW in 2011 The new record number is 16% higher than our forecast for 2021 in the previous EU Market Outlook, but 5% lower than indicated by our research for the latest Global Market Outlook in mid 2021, when the supply shortage-related project delays were already evident but not the extent of its effects on solar deployments in the Europe Union.
