The annual sales totalled 1.8 GWth (approximately 2.5 million m²). The total capacity in operation increased to 34.4 GWth (49.2 mio m²), adding 1.2 GWth (+ 3.6%) to the total installed capacity by the end of 2015.

ESTIF members have exclusive access to a preliminary report on the solar thermal markets in 2016. You can find the report here.

This report covers over 80% of the European solar thermal market. It is the result of the first data collection from ESTIF members and also the collaboration with Solrico. Based on the data from these countries it was possible to extrapolate the values for 2016.

We wanted to be able to provide to ESTIF members an initial insight into this data. It should be taken with some reserve, as these numbers can still have some variations. Still the year-on-year variations is expected to be within a range of one percentual point, ie, 5.4% to 7.4%.

The main report will be launched as usual in June, covering the EU 28 Members States and Switzerland. The extended report will be available in Autumn.

Please do not hesitate to contact us at members(at)estif.org to provide feedback on this data or to ask for any additional clarification.
