The 5th Renewable & Storage Forum, the country’s most influential renewable energy and storage event, organized by energypress and taking place, this year, at the grand ballroom of the InterContinental Hotel in Athens on November 2 and 3, is shaping up into a big event with a great number of participants who will be addressing a rich agenda of topics.
The event comes at a time when the renewable energy and storage sector faces an increasingly complex and demanding institutional and regulatory environment, rapid technological developments, as well as heightened investment interest.
The registration process is now in progress through the event’s website (https://renewablestorageforum.gr/) until all available places are taken. The venue for this year’s 5th edition of the event is bigger, but given the strong interest, registering as soon as possible is advisable.
Besides the main agenda, the conference will also offer a two-day supplementary session, over a number of hours, to be held concurrently at an adjacent room, where specialized technical and corporate presentations will be held.
The conference will be livestreamed, in Greek and English, through the energypress websites, linked websites, as well as social media.
