In this database you can find detailed information on the administrative processes that need to be followed in order to install a PV system in each of the participating countries. The database presents the practical experiences of PV industry stakeholders with regards to labour, costs and durations involved in these processes. It also highlights the legal-administrative barriers and other obstacles that PV project developers have to deal with. For more details on how the information was researched and analysed, please consult the methodology section of the website.

The database covers the following PV market segments:

• Segment A: Small-scale installations on residential buildings
• Segment B: Small to medium-scale installations on commercial buildings
• Segment C: Medium to large-scale ground-mounted installations on open lands

In each country, the PV market segments are described in a national profile and in a regional profile.
