Annual Wind Blade Materials Development Forum

EFIB is Europe’s primary conference dedicated to the economic and green contribution to Europe from innovation and manufacture within industrial biotechnology and the bioeconomy.

The Energy Storage Summit USA will return to Austin in March, taking place at a new and improved venue for 2024. The US remains at the center of the global energy storage industry, with California having surpassed 5GW of grid-scale energy storage installations this year, ERCOT going from strength to strength and new markets across the country opening up. Canada is also becoming more competitive, particularly in provinces like Ontario and Alberta. Energy storage is no longer an aside or a luxury; it is a necessity if we want to reach our global net-zero goals and stay on track. With the passage of the Inflation Reduction Act, it’s important to consider the lay of the land in a post-IRA world, how the industry has adapted to these new market conditions along with how market players are striving to overcome any teething problems stemming from the IRA. Key topics will include forecasting and analyzing emerging markets, resource planning, financial structures, revenue strategies and the nuances of developing storage in a post-IRA world. We are also excited to put a huge focus on networking at the event in 2024, so look out for new and improved networking opportunities such as interactive roundtables, workshops and technical 101 sessions. Energy Storage Summit USA 2024 will provide the perfect platform to connect key industry players across the entire value chain in a buzzing US market. Hosted in Texas, a renewable and business hub, as well as the driving force behind many energy storage installations in the US this year, Austin is the perfect place to connect the industry to tackle most critical issues in the industry. The Energy Storage Summit USA is the only place where you are guaranteed to meet all the most important investors, developers, IPPs, RTOs and ISOs, policymakers, utilities, energy buyers, service providers, consultancies and technology providers in one room, to ensure that your deals get done as efficiently as possible.

Be at the center of solutions-building to the most pressing clean energy challenges with CEBA at VERGE23 Oct 23-26 in San Jose, CA. This year, CEBA members will gain access to the cross-cutting VERGE content across all six programs: energy, carbon, food, transport, buildings.

Rotor blades are decisive in the race for lower cost of energy, and the last years have witnessed drastic progress in structural design and manufacturing. While the industry is growing more and more mature, there is still room for innovation. Efficient ways to optimise LCoE throughout the blade lifetime will be discussed. The conference aims to help the industry to improve design, production and materials to maximise power at minimum cost. Mastering the Horizon: Unveiling the Path to Design mastery, Operational Excellence and Manufacturing Efficiency for Ultra-Long Blades.
