From solar robots to industrial IoT solutions and everything in between, the French delegation at Intersolar 2023 in Munich is a 'how to' guide on powering the future. Discover innovations that are tackling climate change head-on from 16 French companies in Hall 3 - Stand A3.540.

Business France showcases its solar champions at Intersolar 2023

Intersolar is a major event in the solar energy industry calendar where the French Pavilion organised by Business France will showcase the wealth and diversity of the country's solar energy ecosystem and demonstrate its commitment to developing and transitioning to renewable energies.

La vie en rose: planning for a brighter future

The global solar energy market is consequential. Valued at $94.6 billion (£76.42 billion) in 2022, the industry is projected to reach $300.3 billion (£242.61 billion) by 2032, growing at a CAGR of 12.3% from 2023 to 2032.

As a major player in global energy transitions, France has established a self-imposed target of increasing the production of solar energy to a minimum of 100 gigawatts (GW) by 2050, which would represent a tenfold increase on current rates. The French government introduced the Acceleration of the Production of Renewable Energies Act on 10th March this year to simplify procedures and planning around solar projects, as well as the allocation of land available for solar. The aim is to maximise the value generated by renewable energy production. Equally, the minimum coverage for solar-panelled roofs will increase from 30% in 2023 to 50% in 2027 on new or heavily renovated non-residential buildings such as warehouses, hospitals and schools. This 50% requirement will be extended to existing non-residential buildings from 2028.

These new measures will accelerate the transition to solar power and will incentivise French companies to continue innovating and developing the industry on a world stage.
