In the coming years technical innovation and advanced know how about sustainable business and financial models will dramatically spur the development of the international off-grid markets. Companies which operate on the cutting edge of these trends will have a clear competitive advantage. Research institutes are well advised to concentrate on central topics which can have a substantial impact in the field. Therefore a close exchange and cooperation between academics and off-grid practitioners is of high value for both sides. 

This symposium is designed to bring together leading off-grid researchers and seasoned professionals from the private sector. It  gives an overview about hot research topics  and the latest field experience and offers ample networking opportunities. Do not miss this unique event which will merge research and companies. Save the date. You will receive a detailed programme and your personal invitation by the beginning of December

This symposium is designed by the ARE Research Members Working Group comprising leading off-grid reseachers from Fraunhofer ISE, INES,  Technical University of Delft, University of Twente and University of Southampton.
