As the solar LCOE nears grid parity in several locations around the world – and Europe close behind – it signals the end of the feed-in tariffs era. As the PV market makes preparations for a subsidy-free world, interesting market dynamics are emerging: Large energy consumers are signing corporate PPAs and some cases even see full merchant risk exposure. As a result, however, investors and lenders will have to adapt to a new arrangement and come to accept different risks. In this session, jointly organized by Intersolar and Green Giraffe, speakers will explore these new risks, the ways in which deal structures are adapting to mitigate them, and how we should expect the European PV market to evolve in this context. This session is jointly organised by Intersolar and Green Giraffe.

Combating climate change demands aggressive deployment of green assets and projects – and significant mobilization of capital. The next step should therefore be to tap into the enormous bond market, worth US$100 trillion. Green and climate bonds have seen encouraging growth, forming a US$500 billion market in a decade; prominent investors, regulators and exchanges have flocked to the market. Yet green bonds still make up just 5% of investment grade issuance, and about 1% of the overall total. This session will address how to grow the market further to make a more meaningful contribution to climate targets. This session is jointly organized by Intersolar and Climate Bonds Initiative.

SOLAR, THE NEW COOL?

HEAD START – PLANNING AND DESIGN OF PV SYSTEMS

Time 4:00pm–5:30pm Room 14 C

Time 2:00pm–3:30pm Room 14 C

Though previously considered by many to be too expensive for practical applications in the residential and C&I sectors, recent years have seen the price and cost of PV-powered solar cooling systems reduce, bringing the technology back into the fold as a cooling method for hot and challenging climates. New systems and designs have played a key role in improving the economic viability of solar cooling. Speakers in this session will also showcase the latest innovations in PV cooling systems and discuss the market prospects with reference to governmental energy policies.

In this session we will focus on the early stages of the lifecycle of PV systems. We will look at the latest tools and business processes that aim at optimising the identification of promising spots (from an infrastructure or resource point of view) for development, and at streamlining the pre-design, quotation and planning of systems. We will cover the different market segments from residential, where the focus is on reducing the cost of sales, to the utility scale, where optimisation of location and design are most important. This session is jointly organized by Intersolar and CSEM.

Agrovoltaics are novel systems which allow arable land to be shared for both crop production and to generate solar energy. Originated at the Fraunhofer Institute for Solar Energy ISE and first rolled-out in Japan, this promising technology has recently been the subject of major European studies as interest in a potential response address the globally rising demand for food and energy. This session will consider how energy generation and food production can co-exist, examine the concepts developed to date – including modular concepts based on bifacial solar cells – and discuss the prospects for the future of agrovoltaics. This session is jointly organized by Intersolar and Fraunhofer ISE.

SOLAR ENERGY & WATER: THE NEXUS OF TWO ESSENTIAL INGREDIENTS FOR LIFE

Time 11:00am–12:30pm Room 12After agriculture, the world‘s leading cause of water consumption, the next largest demands come from the industrial sector at 10% of the total figure. Industry requires water for processing, manufacturing and cleaning operations, with the majority discharged from the production process as wastewater. Solar technologies are particularly well suited to supporting industrial water purification, wastewater management, decontamination and desalination processes. Furthermore, their contribution to solving water supply problems in arid, sun-blessed locations means that solar technologies can also reduce local fossil fuel consumption. By exploring the vast scope of deployment and salient market opportunities, speakers in this session will showcase the latest developments in a range of solar technologies for applications with water – the world‘s most precious resource.
