Well noted, @CleanHeatEurope. Progress in #heating & #cooling has been relevant (mainly due to Clean Energy Package, as implementation of Fit-for-55 is in progress). Still, recent trends (part of 2023 and 2024) are concerning and require action. #RenewableEnergy #HeatIsHalf

🌱Renewable heating and cooling hit 26.2% in 2023, exceeding the annual growth targets!
But 74% of 🔥 and ❄️still come from fossil fuels, compared to 28% in the⚡sector.
We need a higher share of clean heat to lower prices and boost competitiveness.

☀️ PVT Stakeholders Alert! ♨️⚡
The U.S. Department of Energy has launched a consultation to advance Photovoltaic-Thermal (PVT) tech.
🔗 Details in pic.
🇪🇺EU leads in #Innovation for #PVT & #solarheat , but must invest more in R&I as others catch up. 🌍💡

We cannot ignore the potential for job creation in Europe that comes with homegrown #renewables, such as #SolarThermal, as referred in the #Draghi report.
2 Oct 2024
More renewables 👉 more employment opportunities! This is the main takeaway from @IRENA's recently launched report. A categorisation of global renewable energy employment by technology displays #solarthermal as an important technology driving job creation in the world.

Impressive intervention from @JosepBorrellF at #ForumEuropa today, on #UE🇪🇺 security, stating that it goes beyond just defense. And that EU's dependencies become vulnerabilities, including #RenewableEnergy supply. One more reason to #SolariseHeat, with EU made #solarthermal.

The article below should state EU #solarPV industry. It's a common misunderstanding, to take the part (solar #photovoltaics) for the whole (solar energy). In the case of #SolarHeat we see several EU manufacturers increasing their production capacity to face increased demand.

This doesn't mean that there isn't the need for support, to invest in our manufacturing capacity for ALL solar techs in Europe. But this gives the idea that solar manufacturers are closing down without emergency support, when it refers to specific cases of solar PV manufacturers.

Impressionante trabalho da jornalista Sónia Sul da @revedif_energia, a sumarizar uma conversa de 1h. A conversa foi muito agradável, o trabalho necessário para a compilar neste artigo imagino que não o tenha sido. 👏

🏠 ♻ We start the year with an important message: The future of #energy in #buildings is multi-technological.
Dive into this interview of our Policy Director, @SolarHeatPedro, as he reflects on the pivotal role of #solarheat in the #energytransition.

Worth reading the points made @Green_Europe . They also stress that "lawmakers must concentrate NZIA’s support on readily available technologies and techniques; energy and material efficiency ones". @SolarHeat_EU strongly supports this approach.
22 Jan 2024
The Net-Zero Industry Act must only support proven solutions to decarbonise industry.
We have no time ⏳ and no public money 💸 to waste.
With today's negotiations, the EU has a key chance to make the #NZIA work.

There is a huge flaw in this argument: Norway. These States have the resources to diversify, as large oil companies do. And we already subsidize them with the billions EU MS gives yearly to fossil fuels. politico.eu/article/save-cli…

It's essential to remember that there are other solutions needed in parallel that also complement electrification. If we don't look into such synergies, including #solarheat, not even the doubling of the grid will suffice.
28 Nov 2023
Europe has the most interconnected and resilient #ElectricityGrid in the world and in the next 7 years, we should double our cross-border transmission infrastructure.

Two clear messages that are essential to retain on the decarbonisation of heat supply to industry (not only pulp and paper) : solutions integrating different energy sources, #solarthermal as part of those solutions. Great testimonial from Rodrigo Alvarez from @AspapelOficial.
28 Nov 2023
"In pursuit of optimal energy solutions, it's vital to continue exploring and integrating diverse energy sources. Combining solar energy with other forms offers a promising path forward. It's time for the media to play a pivotal role in supporting the energy industry. Social support is key for the growth and acceptance of new energy solutions.", states speaker Rodrigo Alvarez, Energy Director, @AspapelOficial.

Interesting discussions at "Paper & Beyond", organised by @cepi_paper. It's encouraging to see the exemplary role in decarbonisation of the #EU #paper industry. Even happier to see participants placing #solarthermal 🔆 as one of the main options, with bioenergy and electricity.
