Overview
Referred to as the 'Sun King” by Fortune magazine, Jigar Shah is a leading solar energy visionary who has foreseen much in the solar industry. At SunEdison, Mr. Shah pioneered the idea of solar as a service, and the development of the power purchase agreement (PPA) for the solar industry. Mr. Shah has taken bold and sometimes controversial views on the solar industry and has seen many of his predictions come to fruition.
In this online conference, Jigar Shah will discuss the current state of the U.S. solar industry and what he sees in store for the industry for 2011 and beyond. Questions Mr. Shah will address include:
- How have PPAs evolved? What is the future of the PPA in 2011?
- How has project financing changed in 2010? What changes are expected in 2011?
- Will Concentrating Photovoltaic (CPV) and Photovoltaic (PV) technologies dominate the solar market and win the race against Concentrating Solar Power (CSP)?
- Where are module prices heading in 2011?
- What will the role of new technologies be in the solar industry?
- What is the latest in microinverters and DC-DC chips technologies? Will microinverters or DC-DC chips win out?
- What will the legislative and regulatory challenges be in 2011?
Stephen Lacey,editor for RenewableEnergyWorld.com, and Jon Guice with AltaTerra will moderate an extended period of Q&A where participants will be given the chance to engage Mr. Shah’s expertise and knowledge of the industry.
