The future of C&I – from energy storage to BIPV

Energy storage has become a “must have” for commercial and industrial (C&I) installations in key markets across Europe and there’s no shortage of options for EPC companies, installers and final consumers to consider. Things are evolving rapidly, with new innovations and opportunities in energy storage coming to market, leaving potential C&I clients with much to consider.

In this pv magazine Webinar we’ll be joined by GoodWe to discuss key trends in C&I while asking the manufacturer to explain how its product range handles the challenges present in today’s market. We’ll consider technological variables such as the differences between liquid and air cooling systems, and their effectiveness in high-power applications. We’ll look at how C&I storage can not only provide flexibility but has potential as a revenue opportunity in markets where aggregation is emerging as a tool for providing services to the grid.

We’ll also hear the latest from GoodWe on its BIPV offer, discussing how ultra-lightweight solar panels can be used across a range of applications. For real world insights on GoodWe’s Galaxy ultra-lightweight solar panel, we’ll learn about an Australian C&I project where BIPV and storage have been integrated.

Speakers joining for this webinar will be Faisal Bouchotrouch, Product Manager C&I Europe at GoodWe Europe GmbH, Thanasis Sakkas, Sales Director Channels at GoodWe, Barbara Terreni/Senior Technical Solution Manager Europe BIPV at GoodWe, Tadej Smogavec PhD, COO & partner at Enertec and Erik Wallnér, Head of Strategy and Communication, CheckWatt.
