On the 25th April 2012 the second Solar UK Conference will take place in London. The final steps in the legal process have occurred and now the industry, can move forward with making the FiT work.

There is much to be discussed as the UK has set its self a target of 20GW by 2020. How do we get there and how do we make it work? What are the opportunities and where are they?

This conference will be the first opportunity the industry has to meet and determine the way forward since the High Courts ruling created clarity. What happens next?

The 2012 event will bring together the value chain in two conference programmes, with one objective – Making the UK FiT work!

All this and more will be on the table, we invite you to join us.


Track One: Business, Technology, Application

Predictions vary as to how large the UK industry will grow in 2012 but grow it will. This one day event will bring together the value chain and address the tough questions for all involved on how to make the FiT work.

Track Two: Installer Sessions – Rooftop Rules

The role of installer has become increasingly important and challenging. From working with suppliers to safety certification and training issues. What do you need to know to make a success in residential, commercial and solar farm installations.

Networking Event for All: Solar UK Industry Awards 2012

The Solar UK Awards will recognise the success and development along the entire value chain of the industry from the research in the labs to the person who installs it. The Awards will focus on the people, processes and products that drive the industry forward.
