Solar Energy Systems Conference

Genera is an event backed by Instituto para la Diversificacion y Ahorro de la Energía (IDAE) a public body dedicated to saving and diversifying energy. It brings together 35,000 attendees from over 63 countries to share their take on key trends, innovations, products, and services in energy, decarbonization, electrification, and the environment. With over 400 exhibitors and a packed schedule of industry talks it attracts delegates from all areas of the energy market.

The Offshore Wind Conference 2024 kickstarts a critical year of action to address the barriers affecting the deployment of offshore wind and the success of Scotland’s supply chain companies. Secure your place today to be a part of supply chain and offshore wind collaboration in action. You'll learn: About the scale, pace and change needed to deliver the supply chain and offshore wind required to achieve net-zero. How consenting, environmental, grid and network challenges are being unlocked by industry and government action on the ground. The latest ongoing work to maximise economic opportunities for Scottish ports funding and manufacturing to achieve a just transition. The latest thought leadership, news and project updates from stakeholders seeking catalysts for co-existence. How to access advice, supply chain opportunities and who to engage with to grow your offshore wind business.

The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Solar Energy Technologies Office (SETO) will host a two-day, in-person workshop on the solar applications of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML). The workshop will take place on October 31 and November 1, 2023, in Alexandria, VA.

Corporate leaders face mounting pressure from investors, customers and regulators to decarbonise operations, assets and infrastructure. However, progress is slow; according to the Infrastructure Transition Monitor research, commissioned by Siemens and conducted by FT Longitude, only 30% of companies globally (out of 1,400 surveyed) reported significant advances in decarbonisation or electrification of core processes, and just 37% cited improvements in the energy efficiency of their buildings and facilities. Given that buildings alone contribute nearly 40% of energy-related carbon emissions, there is a large gap to be filled on the road to net zero. Economic crises and budget constraints, as well as a lack of standardisation and alignment on priorities, are challenging efforts to bring about swift and meaningful change. Innovation and collaboration are required to accelerate electrification and to ensure that infrastructure across grids, buildings and transportation is efficient and resilient enough to meet sustainable goals. This reception and panel on Accelerating the Transition to Sustainable Infrastructure, hosted by the Financial Times, in partnership with Siemens, will bring together leaders who are working to bridge gaps in decarbonisation. The discussion will consider the technologies, cooperation and alignment needed on the path to net zero to advance efficiency gains and speed up electrification across corporate and industrial infrastructure.
