Our new short-form podcast episode explores the vital role of public procurement in supporting sustainable choices for solar photovoltaic (PV) technology. In just 10 minutes, listeners will discover how public authorities, including cities across Europe, can promote sustainability through responsible purchasing, prioritising solar PV systems that are both efficient and ethically produced. 

The episode features insights from Lukas Sloet, Policy Officer for Solar Energy, and Michiel Mensink, former Chairman of the Dutch Public Buyers Group for Sustainable PV, and highlights practical tools and initiatives such as the European Commission’s Big Buyers Working Together (BBWT) project and its newly translated Guidance for Sustainable Solar PV Installations.
