Solarplaza Summit | Asset Management North America

North America’s leading event on optimizing solar asset management and operations

Asset Management Strategy | O&M Best Practices | BESS Asset Management

The US solar market has grown at an exponential rate, surpassing 200 GW of capacity by mid-2024. With larger utility-scale solar and storage projects coming online, the industry remains poised for continued expansion. However, the policy landscape is shifting. The future of key incentives is uncertain, and evolving political priorities may reshape the trajectory of clean energy. Meanwhile, rising energy prices, supply chain constraints, grid congestion and cyber security risks continue to challenge asset owners and developers. In this rapidly changing environment, knowledge exchange and networking are more critical than ever.
The 11th edition of the Solarplaza Summit Asset Management North America will provide this essential platform, bringing together key players, market insights, and networking opportunities over three days in San Diego. As the industry reaches an inflection point, the ability to operate assets efficiently and adapt to changing market conditions is paramount. This year, with even greater emphasis on learning and knowledge-sharing, the conference will offer deep insights into asset management complexities, best practices, and forward-looking strategies. Whether you are a new entrant or an industry veteran, this event is essential for gaining the expertise and connections needed to succeed. Join us to explore these critical topics and drive the industry forward.
