The European solar thermal industry is not only able to meet 90% of the EU market demand, but it is also a net exporter with a positive trade balance. European companies export their solar thermal technologies
all over the world, guaranteeing European quality standards across the globe and contributing to Europe’s competitiveness.
70% of the production of solar thermal in
Greece is exported worldwide
To facilitate worldwide cross-border trading of high-quality solar thermal collectors, in 2021 the Global Solar Certification Network (GSCN) in collaboration with the Solar Heating initiative released the SOLERGY collector label.
It facilitates selling solar thermal products outside of the European market through mutual certification recognition and contains information about the energy performance of the
solar collector.
