Stakeholder-driven energy scenarios for a just transition: Dialogue with the scientific community
2023-11-22 | Bonn, Gemany
Participatory processes are fundamental in the development of long-term energy scenarios, integrating insights from a broad spectrum of stakeholders, including government officials, industry experts, and the general public. Such a holistic approach not only enhances the quality of the energy scenarios but also promotes trust and collaboration, paving the way for discussions on future energy prospects and their associated trade-offs.
IRENA’s Long-term Energy Scenarios (LTES) Network has organized various activities to highlight the importance of these processes, with the intention to provide a toolkit for energy planners focused on stakeholder engagement. With backing from the Horizon Europe-funded European SSH center, institutions such as the Institute for European Energy and Climate Policy (IEECP), TU Delft, University College London, and ΔE+ Research Lab are delving into the role of interdisciplinary research in energy transitions.
An upcoming workshop, co-organized by IRENA and IEECP, seeks to bring together professionals from diverse fields. The aim is to underscore the significance of participatory scenarios and the integration of wider scientific input into national energy planning. The workshop will focus on sharing best practices, addressing model limitations in addressing socio-political transitions, and discussing how more inclusive energy scenarios can be formulated through stakeholder collaboration.
The event will be held in a hybrid format (on-site and virtual), allocating only a limited number of on-site (priority given to the LTES members, partners, and topic experts).

Large Scale Solar Central and Eastern Europe Summit
2023-11-15 - 2023-11-16 | Warsaw, Poland
The Large Scale Solar Central and Eastern Europe Summit 2023 returns as the region continues to grapple with decarbonisation targets and energy security requirements.
For developers, investors and technology providers deploying large scale solar projects in countries including Poland, Romania, Hungary, Bulgaria, Ukraine, Croatia, Serbia, Austria, Czech Republic, the Baltics, Slovenia and Slovakia, there are potentially huge payoffs if the right offtake structure and business model is chosen.
However, challenges in obtaining grid connections and permits, and uncertainties about rising interest rates, individual countries’ regulatory frameworks, supply chain blockages, the impact of co-located storage revenues and ESG requirements must be overcome for these opportunities to be realised.
By attending Large Scale Solar Central and Eastern Europe you can leverage a network that has been made over more than 10 years to build critical partnerships to develop solar projects throughout the region.

Solar & Storage Finance USA
2023-11-07 - 2023-11-08 | New York, United States
2023 is set to be a defining year for solar, storage and Solar Media’s 10th edition finance summit.
Last year saw the passage of the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) which brings together an estimated $370 billion in federal funding over the next ten years to facilitate clean energy transition in the US. The IRA has immediately impacted the long-term outlook of the solar and storage industry.
Funding remains available for large-scale energy infrastructure drawn from the Department of Energy’s $40 billion loans program. In addition, the IRA is estimated to attract $600 billion in new investment resulting in an additional 222GW of solar installations over the next decade. This is enough to power an additional 165 million US homes.
The picture is similar for storage as the U.S. government has increased investment tax credits to 30% for energy standalone systems. Estimates indicate a further 20.8 GW of utility-scale battery storage will become operational by 2025. To date, 10 states have energy storage specific procurement targets with that list set to grow. The host state of this year’s summit, New York, is expected to incentivize an additional 5GW of residential, commercial, and utility-scale storage onto the grid.
Challenges remain as the sector continues to decode the updated tax credit structures, navigate the hurdles of the current inflationary environment and keep projects to schedule.

Large Scale Solar USA 2023
2023-05-03 08:00 - 2023-05-04 17:00 | Texas, Texas, United States
The Meeting Place for USA Solar Dealmakers

The U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) statistics show that the US is set to add 63 GW of PV by 2024. Following on the Biden administration’s Inflation Reduction Act which targets $369 billion for clean energy and $40 billion for manufacturing, the solar industry in the USA has never looked so bright. Partnerships are essential to hit that figure and the second annual Large Scale Solar USA Summit is the place to meet developers, EPCs and IPPs responsible for the next phase of the build out.

PV ModuleTech USA
2023-04-25 08:00 - 17:00 | Napa, United States
Understanding PV module supply to the U.S. market in 2023 & 2024

Why PV ModuleTech USA?

The conference gathers together developers, independent power producers and module suppliers to the U.S. solar market as well as EPCs, banks, investors, technical advisory and testing & certification specialists. The inaugural conference sold out last year, so do add this one to your diary for 2023!
With the U.S. solar industry facing numerous supply challenges during a period of increased demand for solar, module supplier selection has become increasingly difficult. This event will address the module landscape that is expected to unfold for U.S. buyers in the coming years; in particular new domestic manufacturing. Special attention will be given to the module offerings, full value-chain traceability and the financial health of the companies currently supplying the market. Additionally, modules are changing in size and technology, with n-type wafers becoming more prevalent. The PV ModuleTech event in Napa, California in June 2023 will help attendees to navigate this new landscape for U.S. buyers in the coming years.
