Governance

Sectoral Engagement

Member of GSC and SPE

As a committed player in the energy transition, Amarenco is an active member of two key photovoltaic industry organisations: the Global Solar Council (GSC) and SolarPower Europe (SPE). Its participation in these networks reflects its commitment to positively influence industry standards and collectively contribute to a sustainable energy model at the global and European levels.

Global Solar Council

Amarenco holds the position of Vice-Chair on the Board and Executive Committee of the Global Solar Council (GSC), the global organisation representing the solar industry. The GSC brings together leading national and regional photovoltaic associations, as well as sector leaders.

Through this role, Amarenco advocates for the global solar industry and works to accelerate the deployment of photovoltaics, aligned with the shared goal of achieving carbon neutrality. The company actively contributes to the GSC’s strategic governance, the definition of international advocacy priorities, and sector representation at major global forums (COP, G20, UN, etc.). As Vice-Chair, Amarenco plays a key role in facilitating member exchanges, shaping collective positions on energy and climate transitions, and promoting ambitious ESG standards for responsible solar development.

This engagement allows Amarenco to advance its vision of ethical, responsible, and community-rooted solar energy, while gaining privileged insight into global policy and industry trends.

SolarPower Europe

At the European level, Amarenco is a member of SolarPower Europe (SPE), the leading solar industry association in Europe. SPE unites industrial stakeholders around a shared vision: making solar energy a cornerstone of Europe’s energy system while ensuring growth aligns with the EU’s climate and environmental objectives.

Amarenco plays a pivotal role in SPE, notably chairing the “Land Use & Permitting” working group, which addresses land use, territorial integration of solar projects, and permitting frameworks. This group aims to streamline land access practices and promote innovative solutions such as agrivoltaics (Agri PV) or floating photovoltaics (Floating PV). This strategic position enables Amarenco to anticipate regulatory changes and advocate for the alignment of solar energy production with agricultural priorities, including under the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP).

Additionally, Amarenco sits on SPE’s Advocacy Committee, one of its most influential decision-making bodies. This involvement allows the company to shape SPE’s strategic direction and contribute to official policy positions and advocacy materials targeting EU institutions.

Lastly, Amarenco participates in other working groups focused on solar project sustainability, responsible supply chains, and the integration of ESG criteria into industry standards.

Its engagement with SPE strengthens its sectoral credibility, solidifies its role as a key player in European negotiations, and enables it to co-develop a solar growth framework aligned with sustainability, innovation, and local integration imperatives.
