REPORT
Europe’s leading conference dedicated to optimization of
the operational phase of PV plants and portfolios
The 3rd edition of the conference Solar Asset Management Europe took place in Milan
from 20-21 October 2015 and was joined by 250+ asset owners and managers, O&M
providers, IPPs, developers, investors, and other technical and financial stakeholders
from 21 countries in the world.
Given the increasing level of activity on the PV secondary market in the region and the
consolidation of PV portfolios and PV service providers in Europe, the event tried to
answer the questions:
• How can we improve data management and what will future-proof data platforms
look like?
• How can PV assets’ valuation and sales of solar assets be made more uniform and
efficient?
• What value does energy trading offer to solar plant owners across Europe?
• How should O&M and AM offerings be standardized?
This “highly specialized and high-return event”, provided “excellent networking
opportunities” with the “industry’s top-players”, confirming itself “the most
comprehensive PV AM conference in existence”. See more evaluations from the
participants in the following page.
