Confident on this positive momentum initiated at the 2012 edition, SOLAIRE EXPO MAROC has become the leading exhibition in the field of solar energy and energy efficiency in Morocco, Africa and around the Mediterranean.

SOLAIRE EXPO MAROC is an adequate and coherent B to B platform to create, develop and present solutions for solar energy and energy efficiency actors and amateurs, enabling you to:

• Present your technical innovations and the latest trends.
• Develop your international market, especially in Morocco and Africa.
• Focus all your business meetings in one place.
• Offer your products and services to targeted professional visitors.

PV EXPO is Japan’s largest show for the PV industry. The latest technologies, materials, manufacturing technologies, and solar cell/module will be exhibited from across the globe. It is held in Tokyo (Feb. 26-28th 2020)

Central Asia possesses vast renewable energy resources including solar, wind and water, largely untapped. This huge potential attract more and more investment into this region as the local government is striving to develop the renewable energy with a series policies.

Kazakhstan aim to reach 50% of total electricity to be generated by renewable sources by 2050, with completing 36, totally 857.93MW renewable energy projects in 2018.

Uzbekistan targets to have up to 5GW of installed solar capacity by 2030. After a tender of 100MW PV project completed in Oct 2019, government signed a mandate with International Finance Corporation (IFC) for new PPP tenders for up to 900MW of solar projects.

After the great success of 2019, the 2nd Central Asia Renewable Energy Summit (CARES 2020) will be back in Nur-Sultan, Kazakhstan, during Feb 27-28, 2020.

Focus on Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan & Tajikistan, CARES will brought a series of deep discussion covering Solar, Wind & Hydro Power by gathering most of the key decision makers in this region, helping you to secure opportunities and win tenders.

The need for clean energy resources due to global warming and climate change is increasing day by day. With its hours of sunshine and its geographical location, solar energy has become a very important sector in Turkey. Solar Istanbul – Solar Energy, Storage, E-Mobility and Digitalization Exhibition & Conference will be held on 11 – 13 March 2020; leading companies from the sector will meet with key buyers. In addition, the latest technological developments and the latest systems in the field will be discussed at Istanbul Congress Center.
