Meet the speakers for the first edition

On the back of the IRA (Inflation Reduction Act), the North American renewable energy market is set to grow substantially across multiple technologies, ranging from wind to solar, from behind-the-meter distributed solar generation to community solar, and from storage to green hydrogen. As the market becomes increasingly sophisticated, with offtakers ever more interested in alternative offtake structures to standard form, developers such as EDP Renewables North America (EDPR NA) need to keep developing innovative solutions to meet the customer needs.

In this collaborative session, we will feature industry-leading experts and speakers who will cover some of the innovative products that EDPR NA is bringing to market in both the utility and distributed generation (DG) sectors.

Join us and be part of the conversation as we explore how to accelerate the clean energy transition across North America and focus on how our approaches meet different stakeholders' needs.
