In Conversation With Hayes Barnard: Stories From a Leading Solar Exec

In a world that faces increasing disruption and losses from extreme weather events and climate change, solar can be an essential element in securing alternative power systems. This case study will analyze how a solar-led microgrid has become a source of reliable power in Puerto Rico after Hurricane Maria.

Prodigal Sun will present a rapidfire pitch session on the potential for disruption -and the road to commerciality and scalability- of its technology.

What efforts are being made to ensure equitable access to solar? What advocacy, policy and infrastructure efforts are being undertaken to ensure all customers have equal access to electricity generated through solar.

In 2020, every new home in California will be required to have a solar installation. California isn't alone, there are similar mandates in other parts of the country as over 100 regions push forward to hit 100% carbon-free renewable energy goals. Designing and selling solar for new construction requires a new set of tools, and a fundamental rethink of the processes by which to demonstrate the best solar installation to potential buyers. #showall

Leap will present a rapidfire pitch session on the potential for disruption -and the road to commerciality and scalability- of its technology.

As infrastructure, policy and technology drivers evolve over time, state markets that were once completely dominated by its wind potential are showing signs of becoming more solar-prone in the next few years. And vice versa. This panel discussion will tackle the factors impacting these transitions, and how developers, utilities and system operators can capitalize on these new energy scenarios across the U.S. #showall

Our team of solar analysts at Wood Mackenzie Power & Renewables will summarize the key takeaways of the day, setting some time aside to cover any audience questions that might remain unanswered.
