Intersolar Innovation Day

July 15-16, 2020

The Intersolar Innovation Day is an online event for all innovation and solar enthusiasts.

In July 2020, the two-day event presented the latest innovations of the global solar industry covering various topics in the fields of solar cells and modules, inverters, mounting and tracking systems as well as solar power plants and solutions for the integration of renewable energy. Around 30 companies presented their innovations on stage to an international audience and to visitors at their booths in the Expo Area of the event. Different networking possibilities connected solar experts worldwide.

"The two-day online event celebrated its premiere recently with success and strong interactive participation. It became clear how high the learning curve and innovation dynamics are in the industry and that the journey is increasingly towards system solutions and new applications." – PV Europe (read full English article – Part 1 & Part 2 )

"Can Intersolar also do online? Until recently, this question was of a more theoretical nature, but as things stand today, it can certainly be answered with a "Yes, of course!" [...] The event certainly had a personality, one was close to the speaker, in fact much closer than usual." – DGS, Matthias Hüttmann ( read full German article )
