Moreover, a large part of the<br />
European climate is not suitable for<br />
the full exploitation of solar energy.<br />
The region has low-altitude clouds,<br />
fog and large amounts of snow<br />
reflect sunlight (NASA, 2015).<br />
Figure [II] provides information on<br />
the levels of global solar radiation<br />
and solar energy in Europe.<br />

56.2%, share of funding allocated for solar energy<br />
21% share of electricity generated is produced by solar energy.<br />

- Electric photovoltaic potential in European countries<br />
Although Germany has contributed<br />
to the diffusion of solar technology<br />
in Europe, statistics show that the<br />
country has a low potential for<br />
photovoltaic energy production<br />
with high efficiency. In northern<br />
Europe, then, solar energy is not<br />
efficient energy production source<br />
