Talk of session: Stronger Together - Accelerating Global Solar Deployment Through Cooperation

Solar power - the world's most flexible energy generation technology - hit another record-breaking year of installations in 2024. But what does that success mean in an era of growing geopolitical tension and social division? As trade wars erupt and many political leaders roll back climate commitments, global demand for fossil fuels continues to rise. So how can the solar sector help address these challenges? This session brings together top industry leaders to explore how collaboration, shared learning and innovation can shape a strong, prosperous global solar market. This session will feature: Launch of Global Market Outlook (GMO) for Solar Power 2025-2029 Insights into solar's role in major global markets Views from leading solar associations on key opportunities and challenges in the world's largest solar markets.
