ISES Special event: SWC50 - Virtual Display
The International Solar Energy Society (ISES) is organising SWC50 – The Century of Solar, a celebration of 50 years of ISES Solar World Congresses.
The celebration includes a virtual conference in early December 2020 with follow-up webinars during 2021, where we briefly look back over the 50 years since the first Solar World Congress (SWC) and then focus on how we can and must transition to 100% Renewable Energy. There will also be celebrations at a number of faces to face conferences through 2021 finishing with the ISES Solar World Congress in India in October 2021.
The celebration also includes a permanent online display area and the release of the celebratory booklet: The Century of Solar – Stories from the Past and Visions for the Future of Renewable Energy.
SWC50 will be launched during the Asia Pacific Solar Research Conference (APSRC20) which will be held in Melbourne from 30th November to 2nd December 2020.
As part of this special event, SWC50 is happy to introduce a special virtual display:
Research institutes, companies and individuals will be able to tell their stories about how they helped develop an industry that has grown from watts to gigawatts virtually through their individual displays in a form of online renewable energy museum.
In the latest SWC50 newsletter, learn more about this virtual display, the many opportunities it offers as well as the many other ways to engage in SWC50 such as the SWC50 Celebratory Booklet and the Call for Renewable Energy Pioneers!
