Solar Conferences set for California, Spain

Rick Way - April 16th, 2010

The 25th European Photovoltaic Solar Energy Conference and Exhibition (25th EU PVSEC) and 5th World Conference on Photovoltaic Energy Conversion will be held in Valencia, Spain from September 6-10, 2010. Check it out here.

This World Conference on Photovoltaic Energy Conversion will bring together the three most important global scientific and strategic PV Conferences: the 25th European Photovoltaic Solar Energy Conference and Exhibition, the 36th US IEEE Photovoltaic Specialists Conference and the 20th Asia/Pacific PV Science and Engineering Conference. This unique PV solar gathering will constitute the world’s leading science-to-science, business-to-business and science-to-industry forum for the global PV Solar sector.

Solar Power International (SPI), previously called Solar Power Conference and Expo, was created in 2004 when the Solar Electric Power Association (SEPA) and the Solar Energy Industries Association (SEIA) joined together in partnership to fill an obvious void: the US was missing a business-to-business solar conference and expo. With an industry growth rate of more than 40% per year, there was a need for a single event where industry could come together with potential customers, policymakers, investors, and other parties necessary for continued rapid growth. It didn't take long for the event to establish itself as the premiere solar event in the US, growing from 1,100 attendees to over 22,500 in just 5 years!
