- Draft detailed, thought-leading policy recommendations building on research, solar market know-how, and hands-on experiences from our members;
- Build and maintain a network with colleagues from the European Commission, Parliament, Council, and EU ministries. This involves gathering insights on policy developments and informing them about recommendations from the solar industry.
- Deliver presentations and participate in panel discussions at conferences and trade fairs across the EU;
