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.

FTTH Council Europe members welcome the proposed Gigabit Infrastructure Act. Sharing civil infrastructure can lower the cost and accelerate the deployment of FTTH in Europe and should be encouraged. The Council supports the introduction of a Single Information Point and clarifications on the conditions to refuse the requests to coordinate civil works. However, to ensure legal clarity, the Council believes the text should be enhanced (especially with regard to the use of virtual access products, coordination of civil works, advance publication of intentions regarding civil works, and permit granting timeframes) and harmonization balanced with national specificities. The Association looks forward to supporting the co-legislators in finalising this important legislative Act.
