The Technical Symposium is a focused program co-located with North America’s largest solar and storage events, SPI and ESI. The symposium includes oral presentations, panels, keynote speeches and posters from industry experts, featuring original research and leading edge discussions on topics ranging from new product engineering, to the latest in high efficiency cells, modules, energy storage, and microgrid technologies.
The 2018 Technical Symposium Committee consists of 17 scientists and industry thought leaders. The committee chairs include:
“Energy storage is the key technology for integrating renewables and other sources of electricity, enabling electric vehicles, and making our electricity grid more reliable, resilient and sustainable. Its adoption is rapidly increasing, and we are excited about its transformative impacts,” said Zhihua Qu, PhD, the energy storage sector chair for the Technical Symposium.
Smart technology and IoT devices are helping to grow the solar and storage industries. This market opportunity is reflected throughout North America Smart Energy Week in the SPI, ESI, and Technical Symposium programming.
“The Technical Symposium at SPI and ESI 2017, together with the main conference and exhibition, made it clear, in no uncertain terms, that solar, energy storage and information-enabled energy uses are here to stay, and will revolutionize the electricity sector,” said Prof. Andrea Alberto Mammoli.
The full schedule for The Technical Symposium will be available in May 2018. For more information, visit Solar Power International.
