Conclusions The solar energy program dedicated to providing subsidies to rural households fits well with the EU mandate to increase the share of renewable energy in the energy mix in Poland, the objectives of climate policy targeting the reduction of GHG emissions as well as the national air quality improvement program.
These regulatory changes include the Rooftop Solar Initiative and the EU Solar Strategy introduced as part of the REPowerEU Package, as well as the adoption of a new EU Solar Standard as part of the Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EPBD).
In addition to the national-level policy regime, in some countries, regulations and policies are also developed and implemented at the regional or community level. Fikru studied the role of local policy in encouraging households towards solar installation and revealed its positive contribution to increasing the number of solar installations.
Fikru studied the role of local policy in encouraging households towards solar installation and revealed its positive contribution to increasing the number of solar installations. Hsu found that the existence of a local solar-power approval process positively influences adoption as it makes the process simpler and easier.
It aims to deliver over 320 GW of solar photovoltaic by 2025 and almost 600 GW by 2030. Alongside the plan, the Commission also presented a set of initiatives on permitting processes for renewable energy projects, which are reflected in the revised Renewable Energy Directive (EU/2023/2413).
The introduction of feed-in tariff schemes, net metering and similar regulations positively supports the development of solar PV by making it economically viable for the masses [38, 93, 94]. A number of studies have evaluated the effectiveness of government subsidies and incentives for promoting solar PV use [87, , , , ].
