ESMC Working Groups Neu

Where Industry Shapes Policy.

ESMC’s Working Groups are where solar industry expertise meets European ambition. Bringing together manufacturers, technology leaders, and supply chain specialists, they develop shared positions, drive regulatory engagement, and turn industrial knowledge into actionable policy. Each group addresses a distinct strategic priority — from cybersecurity and equipment sovereignty to sustainability and the future of European manufacturing.

Working Group European Production Equipment

European Production Equipment Safeguarding Europe’s industrial sovereignty in solar PV by advancing the competitiveness of European-made manufacturing machinery. This group advocates for policy instruments and fair-competition measures that keep critical production know-how on European soil.

Inverter, Storage and EMS Forum (ISEF)

Inverter, Storage and EMS Forum (ISEF) Strengthening Europe’s energy security through a resilient, cyber-secure ecosystem of Western inverter, storage, and energy management system manufacturers. The Forum develops industry positions and contributes to EU regulatory frameworks governing critical digital energy infrastructure.
