Meet up with Andy this week at PV Expo to discuss solar PV, energy storage and/or Bukayo Saka.
Energy-Storage.news and PV Tech will attend PV Expo / World Smart Energy Week in Tokyo, Japan this week.
Let us know if you would like to meet!

Suggesting the UK faces an "epidemic" of solar farms is precisely the kind of charged language that risks a just energy transition.
That leaves around 435 individual projects that are under consideration or beyond in the process. But those projects equate to ~9.9GWdc, or just over 25% of the total pipeline capacity. This is all explained here: solarpowerportal.co.uk/news/…
