Sustainable Solar Europe 2024

The European solar industry has been undergoing rapid development in recent times, and exciting growth is expected in the years ahead. Against this background, the solar sector needs to demonstrate its suitability to become Europe and the world’s primary energy source. To do so, long-term sustainability under all relevant dimensions – environmental, social and economic – must be achieved.

Bringing together industry players, academics, policymakers and other stakeholders, Sustainable Solar Europe 2024 will tackle some of the hottest sustainability topics for the sector with dedicated sessions on carbon footprint, supply chain transparency, agrisolar, community engagement, biodiversity and more. During the event, we will launch a new report Sustainable Solar: Environmental, Social, and Governance Actions Along the Value Chain, and honor sustainability leaders through the European Solar Sustainability Award 2024.
