A new global declaration was unveiled at the COP31 climate conference in Antalya, Turkey. Its aim is to accelerate the development of rooftop solar power around the world.
As reported by RenewablesNow, the initiative, one of the first outcomes of this year’s COP conference, aims to double the number of households using solar energy by 2030 and reach a total of 300 million solar-powered households. The voluntary, non-binding Global Rooftop Solar Declaration has been backed by a number of countries that are parties to the Paris Agreement. The declaration is part of the 300 Million Solar Homes initiative, which aims to significantly expand the use of solar energy directly in homes.
The document calls on governments to simplify permitting for rooftop solar PV installations and incorporate decentralised electricity generation into their energy and climate strategies. Other key elements include making financing more accessible to households, upgrading distribution grids, ensuring fairer access to solar energy and expanding vocational training for workers in the sector.
