The FTTH Council Europe has been monitoring annually the evolution of full-fibre deployment throughout Europe since 2012. This essential work has been driven by the Market Intelligence Committee which publishes our flagship report FTTH/B Market Panorama, complete with FTTH Forecasts for Europe. The survey is commissioned through an external partner and the role of the Committee is to complete and refine these data based on the comprehensive input coming from the network of experts from our 150 members active in all European countries.

FTTH members have access to a more detailed version of the report with granular information regarding the individual FTTH markets in each of the 39 countries surveyed.

Two more reports have been produced under initiative of the Market Intelligence Committee, and launched during the last FTTH Virtual Conference 2021: the latest figures of the FTTH Forecasts for 2021 and 2026 and an overview of fibre deployments in rural areas.

The Market Intelligence Committee is also involved in other studies such as Copper Switch Off, Best Practices in Fibre advertising and the Socio Economic Impact of FTTH.

The whitepaper on broadband technologies raking

To better detail our position in favour of full-fibre, compared to alternative broadband technologies, the FTTH Counci Europe's Deployment & Operations Committee has produced this white paper, on the results of a survey run among its members in order to compare a range of fibre or fibre-extension-based broadband technologies that can help Service Providers, Investors, Municipalities and Government entities provide broadband connections to communities. 

The survey assessed various broadband technologies using weighted parameters such as technical factors, quality, energy consumption, cost, and future-proofness. Conducted among FTTH Council Europe D&O Committee companies, the study may exhibit a bias toward fiber technologies. Participants provided qualitative assessments, and results were combined based on parameter weightings. Due to high variance in network footprints, the study offers a subjective ranking, advising readers to perform their own analysis to determine the best parameter combinations for their specific needs.
