Intersolar Europe and SolarPower Europe have joined forces to establish a crucial forum to explore, discuss, and address the key sustainability challenges and opportunities facing solar.
Building on The smarter E's "Toward a Climate-Neutral Future" an on the work of SolarPower Europe’s Sustainability Workstream, sessions will give the sector an opportunity to delve into SolarPower Europe’s upcoming flagship initiatives – like the supply chain monitoring programme set to support the industry in ensuring products meet the highest ESG standards, or the Solar Carbon Tracker improving understanding of solar’s lifecycle emissions.
