    Welcome to the Solar+ Era! 

    Solar and battery storage are rewriting the rules of Europe’s energy system. Together, they’re driving the shift toward a clean, affordable, and resilient energy future. 

    Solar is breaking records across Europe – and battery storage can bring it to the next level. 

    Europe is facing its moment of independence. Homegrown solar and storage must stand at the forefront of this quest. No other technologies are as versatile, democratic, or capable of delivering lasting energy security for Europe. 

    At the SolarPower Summit 2026, we’ll explore how solar and storage together can power every corner of Europe’s economy – from buildings to defense, from data centres to AI.  We’ll tackle the big questions:  
    • How can Europe ensure that businesses and citizens fully benefit from competitive, secure energy?  
    • What are the main barriers to fully unleashing the solar and storage era?  
    • How do we win people’s hearts and minds for the solar- and storage-led energy transition?  
    This year’s Summit will be bigger, bolder, and brighter than ever –  bringing together over 500 industry leaders at the stunning Théâtre National for two days of high-impact insights, data, and connections.  
    Join the movement. Shape Europe’s Solar+ future.

    Iberdrola was proud to sponsor another successful SolarPower Summit edition and to be part of the discussions that will shape the future of the solar industry. Next steps are key for a proper integration of solar generation and to keep drawing investments. Electrification, grid deployment, storage and flexibility measures will play a key role in this regard.
