Talk of session: Utility-Scale Solar Power III: Solar Power & Sustainability - From Project Planning to Supply Chain Transparency

Sustainability needs to be high on the agenda of every serious solar developer today. As Environmental, Social And Governance (ESG) criteria are embedded in proposed legislation, it is more and more urgent to establish the confidence of investors and consumers in the sustainability of the solar sector and ensure civil society support for large-scale solar developments.

This session will discuss:

• The overall sustainability of traditional, utility-scale solar plants
• How to improve the sustainability of large-scale solar developments
• Cost considerations of sustainable PV plant development
• The supply chain of PV power plant components
• Initiatives solar developers are taking to improve supply chain transparency and sustainability including the Solar Stewardship Initiative
