Recital 25
(25) There is an urgent need to reduce dependence on fossil fuels in buildings and to accelerate efforts to decarbonise and electrify their energy consumption. In order to enable the cost-effective installation of solar technologies at a later stage, all new buildings should be “solar ready”, that is, designed to optimise the solar generation potential on the basis of the site’s solar irradiance, enabling the fruitful installation of solar technologies without costly structural interventions. In addition, Member States should ensure the deployment of suitable solar installations on new buildings, both residential and non- residential, and on existing non-residential buildings. Large-scale deployment of solar energy on buildings would make a major contribution to shielding consumers more effectively from the increasing and volatile prices of fossil fuels, reduce the exposure of vulnerable citizens to high energy costs and result in wider environmental, economic and social benefits. In order to efficiently exploit the potential of solar installations on buildings, Member States should establish criteria for the implementation of, and possible exemptions from, the deployment of solar installations on buildings in line with the assessed technical and economic potential of the solar energy installations and the characteristics of the buildings covered by this obligation. In order to ensure a just energy transition, account should be taken of the differences in the level of prosperity of EU citizens across regions and Member States, which affect citizens’ ability to use solar energy in residential buildings. The Commission, together with the Member States, should design support schemes financed from the Union budget that would offer financial incentives for the installation of solar technologies in both existing and new buildings.
