SolarPower Europe seeks clarity after EU blocks funding for high-risk inverter supply chains

Renewables Now reports that SolarPower Europe says the European Commission's inverter funding restriction has created deep uncertainty for the sector. The rule targets solar PV and battery storage projects that use inverters from high-risk countries, making it a supply-chain and project-finance issue rather than a simple equipment preference. Developers now need clearer eligibility guidance before locking in procurement for EU-backed projects.
