OFF-GRID POWER FORUM "THE WORLD SPEAKS OFF­-GRID"

Based on last year’s success and the positive feedback received from industry and governments, Intersolar Europe together with the Alliance for Rural Electri­fication (ARE), the German Solar Association (BSW-Solar) and the conference organiser OTTI, join forces again this year and invite you to the 2nd Off-Grid Power Forum on 22.-24. June 2016 during the Intersolar Europe Trade Fair.

INNOVATION & APPLICATION FORUM

Those wanting to discover the international solar industry’s latest trends and hottest technologies should visit the "Innovation and Application Forum", where exhibitors showcase their innovations during 15-minute presentations. What’s more, experts from each company are on hand afterwards to give further information. Moreover, the AWARD finalists present their projects and innovations.

EES FORUM – EXPERTS SHARING EXPERIENCES

On all three exhibition days, industry experts will be informing about experience with production, sale, installation and application of batteries and energy storage systems. The topics range from technology and innovations to domestic and commercial storage solutions, the combination of decentralized storage units into swarms and the use of large-scale storage systems in the energy supply, as well as the combination of renewable energy and electromobility.

CONFERENCE WORKSHOPS

E-MOBILITY & RENEWABLE ENERGY

There are many potential synergies between renewable energy and e-mobility – such as using electric cars as storage devices for solar power. This and other clever solutions will be presented at the special exhibit E-Mobility & Renewable Energy. In hall B1, participants will showcase new vehicle concepts and innovative charging technologies.

FOCUS: SMART RENEWABLE ENERGY

Solar and smart – that’s the future of modern energy supply. Decentralized photovoltaics installations and battery storage systems for domestic power supply will be combined in intelligent networks providing balanced power to the public grid. The devices and communication technology needed for the integration of these elements – small and large electrical storage systems, intelligent transformers and virtual power plants – will be presented at Intersolar and ees North America 2016. Electric vehicles are also part of the power grid of the future, both as consumers and as energy storage devices.

ELECTRICAL ENERGY STORAGE AT INTERSOLAR NORTH AMERICA

ees North America is the industry hotspot for suppliers, manufacturers, distributors and users of stationary and mobile electrical energy storage solutions. Covering the entire value chain of innovative battery and energy storage technologies – from components and production to specific user application – ees, co-located with Intersolar North America, is the ideal platform for all stakeholders in the rapidly growing energy storage market.

FOCUS - PV MANUFACTURING AT INTERSOLAR NORTH AMERICA

The concentration of exhibits, programs and visitors is designed to create exciting and valuable synergies where critical challenges and future success drivers will be addressed by the PV manufacturing community.  No other U.S. show has the high density of PV manufacturing exhibits, programs and visitors.

Introducing RockIt Smart Slide

Introducing RockIt Smart Slide

Introducing RockIt Smart Slide - the ultimate solution for fast and easy installation of the rail-less RockIt racking system on composition shingle roofs. Smart Slide conforms to UL 441 and TAS 100 (A)-95 for wind and wind-driven rain, providing a super-strong watertight seal that is achieved through compression, in most cases without the need for additional sealant. The waterproofing sealant is embedded deep into the granules of the shingle, thanks to the integrated flexible foam layer that provides cushioning. This ensures a secure fit that conforms to any architectural-style shingle. With UltraGrip Technology™, you can rely on a secure installation, as it absorbs the movement created by thermal expansion and contraction. The pre-installed sealing pads are compatible with all composition shingle roofs, making it the ideal choice, even in ambient temperatures as low as 5 degrees.
