This theatre will focus on the residential solar sector, covering topics relevant to installers, local authorities, and homeowners. Key discussions will include community solar projects, financing and grant options, installer innovations, and government-led initiatives. The objective is to provide a clear understanding of how residential solar adoption can be scaled effectively.
Storage plays a key role in the adoption of solar energy, and this theatre explores both residential and large-scale storage solutions. Sessions will cover financing models, grid integration, battery technology advancements, and safety considerations, including fire risk monitoring. In addition to battery storage, it will also look at alternative energy storage technologies, such as thermal energy storage, compressed air energy storage, and pumped hydro, and their role in improving grid flexibility and optimising renewable energy use.
This theatre will highlight how businesses across various sectors—such as manufacturing, retail, and healthcare—are integrating solar. Sessions will include case studies on financing models, grid connection challenges, corporate PPAs, and planning considerations. The goal is to provide practical insights for businesses looking to reduce energy costs and meet sustainability targets through solar adoption.
This stage will focus on the development and deployment of large-scale solar projects. Discussions will cover financing, policy and regulation, grid constraints, corporate PPAs, and new technologies such as hybrid solar-storage systems and AI-driven optimisation. The aim is to provide insights from policymakers, utilities, investors, and developers on the future of utility-scale solar in the UK.
