Solar and Storage Live is heading to ExCel London on 29-30 of April 2024! 

Following the success of the flagship Birmingham event in October, the Solar and Storage Live brand is expanding to various locations across Europe with the next tradeshow being held in London in April.

Solar and Storage Live is heading to ExCel London on 29-30 of April 2024!

This will be followed by Zurich (17-18 September), Birmingham (24-26 September) and Barcelona (13-14 November). 

Solar and Storage Live London will bring over 150 exhibitors, 250 speakers and 8000 attendees to ExCel in April. The free to attend exhibition and conference brings together key players in the Solar, Storage and Renewable Energy space. Key participants include Solar Energy UK, MCS, POWERful Women and title sponsor, GivEnergy. 

Solar Energy UK’s Chief Executive, Chris Hewett, will be providing the opening remarks for the event at the keynote theatre on 29 April, followed by a keynote presentation from Patrick Harvie MSP, Minister for Zero Carbon Buildings, Active Travel & Tenants’ Rights, Scottish Government.

On 30 April, the UK’s Solar Taskforce will be announcing ‘The UK’s Solar Roadmap’: a list of key recommendations to secure the UK’s energy future. Andrew Bowie MP, Parliamentary Under Secretary of State, Department for Energy Security & Net Zero will be opening the second day of the event to discuss this. His presentation will be followed by a panel made up of the Solar Taskforce’s key councillors who will share their recommendations. 

At the 2023 Birmingham event, Solar Energy UK launched The Recruitment Zone; a purpose-built stage attracting new job candidates into the Solar and Storage industry. The scheme offered 100 job vacancies to candidates wanting to enter the industry, or those looking for a move within the Renewable Energy space. Following its huge success, we are pleased to announce that the Recruitment Zone will again feature at Solar and Storage Live London.

Initiatives like these support the rising demand for Solar in the UK. With the call for Solar generation increasing, the industry will undoubtedly grow, promoting the need for a larger Solar and Storage workforce. The Recruitment Zone helped highlight the challenge of filling new roles in Solar and offered these new roles directly to aspiring candidates.   

Solar and Storage Live are proud to continue their partnership with POWERful Women, the leading professional initiative dedicated on working towards a gender balanced, diverse and inclusive Energy sector. At the end of the opening day of Solar and Storage Live London, POWERful Women will be hosting networking drinks where the industry can learn more about what POWERful Women do and how they can promote diversity and inclusion in the sector. 

From all at Solar and Storage Live, we are looking forward to seeing you at Solar and Storage Live London on 29-30 of April 2024. 

Come and meet the Renewable Energy Installer team on stand G2!
