Talk of session: Hybrid PV Power Plants II: Business Models for 24/7 Renewable Power Plant Supply

This session explores the evolving business models behind Hybrid PV Power Plants, focusing on strategies for delivering 24/7 renewable power. We'll examine how hybrid systems—combining solar PV with energy storage, wind, and other renewables—are designed to ensure a consistent and reliable energy supply. Industry experts will discuss financial models, risk management, and the economic viability of these systems. Case studies will illustrate successful implementations, highlighting the potential of hybrid PV power plants to meet growing energy demands sustainably and cost-effectively while enabling a transition to round-the-clock renewable energy.

The smarter E Europe Conference 2023 | Conference Program

Our European energy system is undergoing a major transformation, moving towards decentralization with increased penetration of distributed energy resources (DERs) connected to the grid, such as PV solar, battery storage, and EVs. While DERs provide clear benefits such as limiting costs, reducing CO2 emissions, and helping to empower consumers, there are still challenges to overcome to develop DERs to their full potential. This session will focus on best practices and innovative projects, both from a grid and user perspective (e.g. energy communities) and we will discuss how the regulatory framework can be improved to facilitate the penetration of DERs and active participation from consumers.
