The transition to a renewable energy future is accelerating, driven by advancements in solar power, energy storage and smart grid technology. As these innovations continue to gain traction, the vision of a fully renewable, 24/7 energy supply is becoming not only technically feasible but also financially viable and increasingly versatile. The smarter E Europe and Intersolar Europe 2025 will serve as key platforms for showcasing the latest technologies that are making this transformation possible, highlighting new developments in efficiency, profitability and integrated energy solutions.
The rapid expansion of renewable energy has been remarkable. According to the International Energy Agency (IEA), nearly 940 gigawatts (GW) of renewable energy capacity will be added annually from 2030 onwards, with solar power leading the way. Photovoltaics (PV) alone will account for approximately 80% of all renewable energy capacity installed between 2024 and 2030.
Even as the immediate pressures of the energy crisis ease, the dominance of renewable energy in global power generation continues to grow, proving that it is the most sustainable and cost-effective solution for meeting the world’s energy needs.
