Solarplaza Summit Asset Management North America

9 - 10 Apr 2024

San Diego

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

Asset Management Strategy | O&M Best Practices | Market Dynamics

Over the course of the ten years we’ve hosted this event, the US solar market grew at a steep average annual rate of 24% and managed to pass the mark of 150 GW of cumulative PV capacity. In 2023 alone, 30 GW of capacity is expected to come online. Meanwhile, the much-hyped impact of the IRA has become tangible, with over $100 bln of announced investments in solar and storage companies. This year’s conference will assess the evolving asset management landscape, the impact of the IRA, and the changes expected for the year to come.

Energy and commodity price increases, supply chain constraints, labor shortages, and growing risks due to climate change and cyber security threats all profoundly impact the North American solar market. Besides the most recent market trends, strategies for optimizing asset management, revisiting corporate strategies for commercial and risk mitigation purposes, and advancements in O&M technologies, the experts on stage will also discuss the latest NERC regulations and the most recent storage technology advantages.

Join us for this anniversary edition of the Solarplaza Summit Asset Management North America - featuring key local and global players, inspirational speakers, and extended networking opportunities - and enjoy two action-packed days of sharing knowledge and connections in San Diego.
