Rooftop Solar PV Country Comparison study May 2022Country profilesgovernance;incentives & support schemes;permitting procedures, energy sharing schemes;energy communities and;additional measures to support solar PV development. As part of the Rooftop Solar PV Country Comparison study report, these country profiles havebeen produced by CAN Europe and its member organisations in eleven Member States to compare each countries’ good and bad policies and practices in regards to residentialrooftop solar PV.The eleven countries in focus are: Bulgaria, France, Germany, Greece, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania,Portugal, Romania, Sweden, and Spain.The country profiles examines and scores six key areas: Each area is scored by a "traffic light" system for each country: IntroductionRed = 0-1 pointsOrange = 2-3 pointsGreen = 4-5 pointsOverall, the country profiles show that while some countries may be better performing in theirrollout of residential rooftop solar PV than others, there are still significant barriers at nationallevel which impede a higher uptake, and many Member States are still lacking the rightregulatory framework and enabling environment.
