KEYNOTE PANEL DISCUSSION: EUROPEAN SOLAR DRIVING AN ECONOMIC REVIVAL

Synopsis

This session will pick up on the ambition across Europe for the solar industry. We will assess the contribution of the industry to jobs and skills-development as well as aligned industries such as energy storage, wind, green hydrogen and electric vehicles.

• How much solar do we need to electrify the energy system in Europe and how can we scale the industry up to meet that demand?
• New money coming into the sector from public and private finance – what to expect?
• Solar as an engine for jobs-creation – but how to increase diversity at the same time?
• New solar markets in Europe
