Bright solar future

Solar Energy Association Conference set for Croke Park

Irish Solar Energy Association’s (ISEA) annual conference will take place on 28 April 2020 in Croke Park. This year marks a historical significance for solar in Ireland as the Government continues to discuss its first ever support for the industry in the form of a Renewable Electricity Support System (RESS). The signal to market is strong in 2020 and the future looks prosperous for those who have invested time and energy in developing projects in recent years. During the conference delegates will hear from industry experts from Ireland and abroad across the full supply chain, on how a successful solar industry in Ireland will be transformative in job creation and investment. Solar Ireland 2020 will be a virtual roadmap to where the opportunities and challenges are. ISEA’s mission is to: • Work to influence government policy on renewable energy; • Work with members to provide industry evidence to government to inform policy;

• Champion solar to investors, policy-makers and the public to educate and inform them on the benefits of solar.

This year’s ISEA national conference event promises to be the most interactive yet with a full programme of workshops, simulations and demonstrations running in parallel. Topics will include: • Renewable Energy Support Scheme (RESS); • Financing the future; • Planning and contracts; • Grid connections; • Climate commitments and the Action Plan; • Exceptional customer experience; • Investment opportunities.

The stream facilitators will share their solar journey with an anticipated 400 plus delegates, while also providing an interactive environment through the related programme of events. Q
