Solar Energy Exhibition and Conference
Presented by the Australian Solar Council and the Australian Energy Storage Council, the Solar Energy Exhibition and Conference is being held on 4 and 5 May in Melbourne.
The Australian Solar Council Chief Executive John Grimes said: “We are on the crest of an unstoppable wave. A technological wave that will link renewable energy, batteries and smart energy systems. For the first time consumers, rather than power companies, will be at the heart of the energy system.”
The rapidly emerging storage sector is universally described as a game changer, a smart, dynamic and disruptive force. It has attracted innovators, entrepreneurs and thought leaders keen to take part in the clean-energy revolution, many of whom will be seen and heard on the podium at the conference.
There will be three free conference streams: energy storage, market and technology, and professional development.
Conference topics include: energy market in transition; solar and storage business model innovation; energy innovation and the new economy; why utilities should love solar; the grid of the future; internet of energy; and cracking the code on commercial solar.
A range of expert speakers will educate and inform about every aspect of the exciting changes underway. Among the invited guest speakers are John Hewson, Martin Green, Ric Brazzale, Tim Buckley, Simon Corbell, Oliver Yates, Christine Milne and Finn Peacock.
Complementing the conference is the industry exhibition that features the latest, and arguably the smartest, solar and energy storage products and services from Australia and overseas.
The event is suitable for battery and panel manufacturers, inverter innovators, commercial and residential PV installers, large-scale developers, technicians, trainers, trading certificate agencies, policymakers, bureaucrats, builders, architects, consultants, academics and more.
