Some say that everything is bigger in the USA — and Solar Media’s 7th Annual Solar & Storage finance event will be no exception.
In its new Virtual format, this event is designed as a meeting place for deal-making. Not only will we discuss the most up to date topics and technologies but will also provide a world-class networking platform so that developers, EPCs, manufacturers, asset owners, and investors can connect to discuss future opportunities.
There is no better time to discuss Solar & Storage investment than today, as in order to reach the USA’s ‘majority renewables vision’ by 2030 the market will need to increase by 18% percent through the next decade with installations averaging 39GW per year. This is a big step up from an already impressive 2019 where the market grew 23% and installed 13.3GW.
Solar & Storage mandates and initiatives will hopefully continue to spread through the United States by all players — states, cities, corporations, co-ops, and residents — an unstoppable force to ensure the grid transforms into a more resilient, efficient, and lucrative resource.
Whilst we still navigate the COVID-19 pandemic, it is clear the industry must chart a path forward that put a premium on innovation, jobs recovery and an intelligent approach to energy generation. This conference plays a pivotal role in discussing the right strategy, policies and investment needed to ensure the American economy is fuelled by clean energy.
