Utility-Scale Solar Power I: Trends in Development, EPC, O&M, Asset ManagementWhile administrative hurdles are still a great concern for solar developers, EPCs also face material supply shortages, continuously new products and a shortage of qualified installers. At the same time, the current inflationary environment is creating immense cost pressure at each step. As high systems yields are crucial for the profitable operation of utility-scale power plants, O&Ms and asset managers employ sophisticated digital tools and advanced analytics to optimize the performance of utility-scale solar plants. This session will discuss:The status of utility-scale solar power in EuropeHow to address project development challengesThe evolution of solar EPCThe latest digital solutions in O&M and asset management

With solar power having added more capacity than all other power generation technologies combined in recent years, governments around the world have been increasingly putting solar at the heart of their decarbonization strategies. Next to China, the European Union probably has the most ambitious PV targets. Through its first Solar Strategy, the European Commission has defined targets for solar capacity growth of around 50 percent to 400 GWac (500 GWdc) until 2025, and another 50 percent by 2030.This session will cover:Global Market Outlook for Solar Power 2023-2027 (report launch)The role of solar power in global and European decarbonization policiesPolicies and business strategies for the rapid deployment of extensive solar capacities

Both the residential and the commercial segments have seen a boom in rooftop PV. With nearly two thirds of all new solar capacity installed on buildings in the EU in 2022, the deployment of solar rooftop installations will continue in the short term. The energy crisis has been contributing to driving the demand for rooftop PV installations, with homeowners striving to protect themselves against surging retail energy rates and looking for affordable electrical heat and transportation options. This session will discuss:Drivers & challenges for rooftop solar PV in EuropeTechnical solutions for high levels of solar self-consumptionBusiness models for prosumers
