Solar Energy Exhibition and Conference 2017

Presented by the Australian Solar Council and the Australian Energy Storage Council, the Solar Energy Exhibition and Conference is being held on 3 and 4 May in Melbourne.

The Australian Solar Council Chief Executive John Grimes said: “The Solar and Energy Storage Show presents a great opportunity for delegates to expand their network, meet key industry decision-makers and find new clients. Because we are industry insiders, we bring together the very best conference presenters. We know what is topical, engaging and useful for our delegates. We are committed to the best solar installer professional development training available anywhere in the world.”

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: Applied Energy Storage, Policy and Market, and Professional Development. The conference is designed to present the latest in technology, policy, projects, regulations, industry analysis, forecasts and project financing.

Applied Energy Storage hot topics include: technology breakthroughs, smart energy business models, energy storage, real-world data, battery testing performance results, microgrids and fringe-of-grids, Internet of Things and big data, making commercial solar and energy storage work, and energy management ‘bringing it all together’.

Policy and Market hot topics include: state and federal government policy, unlocking project finance, large-scale solar and storage, energy market reform and global developments.

A range of over 100+ expert speakers will educate and inform about every aspect of the exciting changes underway. Among the invited guest speakers are Josh Frydenberg, Mark Butler, Lily D’Ambrosio, John Hewson, Simon Corbell, Mike Cleary, Ivor Frischknecht, Christine Milne and Mark Bailey.

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.
