Registration is now open for the Solar Power Generation USA conference and exhibition which returns to Las Vegas for the 3rd annual event at the Rio All-Suites Hotel & Casino on 25-26 January 2011. Over 300 professionals attended last year’s event and 2011 is looking set to be bigger and better still.
Bringing together utilities and the solar community, the congress explores how to increase the successful deployment of large-scale centralized and decentralized solar power plants. With dedicated streams for CSP and PV, the meeting crafts in depth analyses of the issues central to each. Joint sessions will draw upon the strength of the industry as a whole tackling the strategy, policy, investment, transmission, siting and pricing issues challenging both sectors.
