The EU and its Member States should recognise hybrid solar systems as key contributors to the EU’s energy security, competitiveness and decarbonisation goals, and integrate hybrid solar into grid planning, flexibility strategies, and funding mechanisms. Regulators and grid operators should accelerate grid connection procedures for hybrid PV.
Optimised the deployment of wind and PV across Europe by minimising residual demand. Studied scenarios of vRES penetration, demand, offshore grid, and PV configurations. Optimal capacity mix is 74% wind/26% PV in copper-plate Europe without storage. Offshore wind in the North Sea is a no regret option.
Hybrid solar, combining solar with storage or wind, is key for Europe’s energy transition. It supports system flexibility, improves the cost-effectiveness of an asset and makes energy generation more reliable. Hybrid solar projects with storage or wind enhances energy security by ensuring a more stable and reliable power supply.
