Renewable Energy Trading Summit

The Risk, Reward and Reality
of Trading Renewable Power

Thank You To Our 2022 Sponsors

The energy transition is gathering pace with renewable energy attracting increasing sums of capital each year. Solar and wind deployment is increasing annually and governments are ever-more reliant on the renewables sector to stimulate moribund economies. Retirement of fossil fuel assets continues in the background. However, without subsidies and uncertainty around PPAs, renewable asset owners are heading into the wholesale markets to trade power but are they ready for the volatility in revenue this will entail?

The Renewable Energy Trading Summit built on Solar Media’s deep ties with global renewable asset owners and examined the risk, reward and reality of this new era. Presentations, panels and fireside chats with senior industry stakeholders assessed:

An overview of European power markets and trading arenas
Whether wholesale trading is right for your business and how much risk this entails
What’s your power worth? Now and over the long term?
What’s the depth of the PPA market and how do insiders see this growing?
Are energy buyers wising up to the true value of power?
Does the volatility of energy trading match institutional investors’ mandates?
The role of technology in enabling the market
Are markets ready for intermittency and what will renewable power do to power
prices in general?

The Renewable Energy Trading Summit brought together renewable power asset owners, investors, exchanges, intermediaries and large energy buyers to discover the future of power sales. This unique event was designed specifically for the most senior players and provided an excellent forum for business deals, networking and learning. This is the only event in Europe dedicated to renewable energy trading and Solar Media, the publisher of PV-Tech, Energy Storage News, Current News and Solar Power Portal, used its expertise to connect the right people with the right information at the right time.
