Battery Day Europe 2024

The working groups of the European Solar Photovoltaic Industry Alliance (ESIA) will provide details on the progress that has been made at re-building a European solar industry since the organization was launched in December of 2022. This session will discuss:Financing of European manufacturingDemand for European solar productsSupply chain bottlenecksSolutions for closing the skills gap

The advances of technology along the solar value chain in recent years have been breathtaking: Innovations have included considerably larger wafers, new cell technologies, much higher-efficiency solar modules, smarter inverters with management systems that can control fully electrified high-tech homes and less material-intensive fixed or tracking mounting systems that can be installed faster and boost system yields. This session will provide an overview of the latest technologies:Wafer-to-module technology innovationsGrid-connection and system control devicesMounting technology for solar system installations

An inflationary environment with high product and labor costs as well as rising interest rates have made investments into solar projects less attractive at a time when Europe needs to accelerate deployment in order to meet its climate targets. On top of that, policy makers are creating uncertainty among investors by implementing caps on revenues and rushing to modify an established electricity market design.This session will cover:Overview of the solar project financing landscapeBusiness models and solar investment trendsInsurability and risk assessment in PV projects
