According to foreign media reports, the European Parliament recently approved the EU photovoltaic standards bill, which requires that EU member states will be installed on the building photovoltaic systems in the future.

The directive calls for all new residential buildings in the EU to be powered by rooftop solar power from 2030, and public and non-residential buildings will need to gradually deploy solar power according to their size and after an assessment of the technology and economics of the target. the EPBD aims to reduce energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions in the building sector to meet the EU's goal of achieving climate neutrality by 2050.

The standard forms part of the European Building Performance Directive, which was agreed last December and formally approved by the European Parliament on 11 March by 370 votes to 199, with 46 abstentions. The directive must be formally approved by the European Council before it becomes law.

It says that EU member states must progressively install PV systems on the roofs of public and non-residential buildings, depending on their size, if technically and economically suitable.

The directive requires EU member states to install rooftop PV systems on new commercial and public buildings by 2026, on commercial and public buildings undergoing relevant renovation by 2027, on new dwellings by 2029, and on existing public buildings by 2030.

Agricultural buildings and historic buildings can be excluded, while EU member states can decide to exclude buildings of special architectural or historic interest, temporary buildings, churches and places of worship.
