In the past years the Berlin Energy Transition Dialogue (BETD) has become a leading international forum for key stakeholders of the energy sector. High-level policymakers, industry, science and civil society are given the opportunity to share their experiences and ideas on a safe, affordable and environmentally responsible global energy transition. Over 2,000 participants from more than 90 countries, 50 foreign and energy ministers and state secretaries, and over 100 high-level speakers gather in the German capital every spring to be part of the Berlin Energy Transition Dialogue.

There is a global understanding to reach climate neutrality by 2050. To achieve this, the world needs a Global Green Deal with the transformation of the energy systems at its heart. The tools are in our hands! Collaboration of politics, industry, science and civil society in a new multilateral framework is a precondition for a global green transition. Policymakers need to provide the right framework to combine national realities with global goals.

The Berlin Energy Transition Dialogue is hosted and supported by the German Federal Government and is a joint initiative of the German Renewable Energy Federation (BEE), the German Solar Association (BSW), the German Energy Agency (dena) and eclareon.

Between conferences, the Green Sofa travels to various events worldwide to promote the Berlin Energy Transition Dialogue and global energy supply and climate change issues.

The upcoming 9th Berlin Energy Transition Dialogue will be held 28-29 March 2023.

Content and speakers to be announced soon.

SolarEX Istanbul, the fair of those who receive their energy from the Sun, is preparing to bring the latest technology products of world brands together with its investors for the 15th time.

International SolarEX Istanbul Fair is preparing to bring together many international professional visitors with the leading companies of the sector once again in an area of 35,000 m2, which is 5 times larger than before, in Istanbul Exhibition Center between 6th and 8th of April 2023.

As Turkey's first and only international solar energy and technology fair for investors, producers, components and end users, which is excitedly awaited by all professionals of the solar sector, is of great importance for our country.

“We will put our signature under the biggest fair in the sector”

Yasemin TERLE, who has been managing the project since the first year of SolarEX Istanbul International Solarex Istanbul Fair, which has been the final destination of the investors for 15 years, who receive their energy from the Sun, the unlimited energy source, has made the following statement about the fair: “The only way to leave  the global energy and climate crisis behind is the solar energy system that is unlimitedly self-repetitive, renewable and not dependent on raw materials. Clean energy and energy efficiency on a global scale is the priority of all countries in the world. Efficient and effective use of energy is possible with the unlimited use of solar energy by individuals and masses aiming for sustainable growth. We are excited to meet again in the international arena for the 15th time in SolarEX Istanbul, where more than 200 companies and more than 500 brands of the solar sector are expanding their fields every year. We continue our promotion efforts in the target markets by exhibiting the latest technology products in SolarEX Istanbul in 2023 along with the capacity increases of our sector companies, who have made millions of dollars of investments in 2022 SolarEX. As a team, we attach great importance to promoting our fair especially abroad. Last year, we participated in 12 foreign fairs on 5 continents from the United States to the United Arab Emirates and made promotion in them. This year, we will expand the scope even more and bring especially purchasing delegations from abroad to Istanbul. In our country, where the unlimited energy of the sun is a strong commercial resource, we have been gathering the solar community under the same roof for 15 years. In 2023, we are happy to offer a strong commercial arena for the solar sector with the organization that will bring together solar energy investors and sector professionals from Eastern Europe to the Near East, from the Middle East to North Africa. We will be happy to get together with our participants and visitors in SolarEX with the good developments and innovative works on behalf of our sector for the 15th times. . ‘’

Emphasizing the importance of the sun on the way to energy independence in our country, which is a clean, renewable and continuous energy source, the International SolarEX Istanbul Fair brings together sector leaders with individual and mass environmentally friendly solutions. The event, which cooperates with many international NGOs and organizations worldwide, enables investors to find answers to all their questions about the latest developments in the solar sector worldwide by holding simultaneous conference sessions with live broadcast infrastructure accompanied by simultaneous translation.

North American Solar Market Back in Full Swing

Solarplaza switches it up for 9th edition of its North American Asset Management Summit

Moving from the Bay Area to San Diego and revamping its program format, the 9th edition of the ‘Solarplaza Summit Asset Management North America’ will be a repowered key source of knowledge, network, and fresh inspiration for American PV asset management professionals.

The US solar market just passed the mark of 130 GW of cumulatively-installed PV capacity. Though 2022 got off to a slow start, the US solar market is set to get back in full swing. With the recent approval of the impactful Inflation Reduction Act, forecasts have been upgraded towards 162 GW of utility-scale solar capacity coming online in the United States over the next five years (Wood Mackenzie, 2022), and the future of PV in the US is looking sunnier than ever.

Still, dynamics in the international market, such as energy and commodity price increases, mounting solar supply chain constraints, and growing risks due to climate change and cyber security all have a profound impact on the market. A firm fundament is needed to keep the industry resilient, which will in turn open up many opportunities for operational alignment and re-evaluation of commercial and risk mitigation strategies for companies. To keep the industry resilient, the exchange of knowledge and network is more important than ever!

The ‘Solarplaza Summit Asset Management North America’ will combine a crowd of key local and global players, market insights from inspirational speakers, and extended networking opportunities for two action-packed days of sharing knowledge and connections.

Already a firm must-attend event on the agenda of any American PV professional, this new edition will expand on its usual success formula. After eight editions in the Bay Area, the conference is – upon popular demand – relocating to San Diego and will make the best use of its new surroundings. The program is getting a revamp as well. Of course, the traditional O&M and asset management tracks remain steady pillars that will provide crucial market updates, as well as detailed input on the IRA, energy storage asset management, automation, digitization, cyber security, and more. New elements will be the “Think Tank sessions”: deep dives into pressing industry challenges – and the opportunities to overcome them – like workforce development, DEI, supply chain issues and grid infrastructure. With optional add-ons like the pre-conference networking day, the networking dinner, and a special networking activity on day two, there will be plenty of opportunities for networking in different professional and leisurely settings.

All in all, the upcoming edition of the ‘Solarplaza Summit Asset Management North America’ will be an event to be remembered!
