The 1st Solar Mobility Forum and the 2nd Solar Industry Forum will take place on 25 – 26
September 2018 during the 35th EU PVSEC in Brussels, Belgium at the SQUARE – Brussels
Meeting Centre. “Research Meets Business” is the guiding principle for these two events
which will gather the most acknowledged experts in the PV sector and influential
executives of the PV manufacturing sector. International speakers, panellists, and
attendees from al over the world wil meet and discuss the future of PV and new
applications.
Co-organizers of the events are the European Technology & Innovation Platform for
Photovoltaics (ETIP PV), the BECQUEREL INSTITUTE and EU PVSEC, in cooperation with
SOLARUNITED.
The 2nd Solar Industry Forum will be the meeting point for all industry stakeholders to
exchange cutting-edge information and raise their knowledge about the future of the
manufacturing industry in the Solar PV sector. This second edition is again an event
embedded within the EU PVSEC, providing an alternative path for attendees with an
industry background, al owing them to attend EU PVSEC’s scientific sessions in parallel
with the Solar Industry Forum sessions. The two-day forum is targeting high-level PV
industry stakeholders with a mix of presentations and roundtable discussions with key

industry and what to manufacture as well as economy and financing of the industry.
The 1st Solar Mobility Forum, taking place on 25 September 2018 with a half-day morning
session, is dedicated to solar and mobility reaching from Vehicle-integrated PV (VIPV) to
the contribution of electric vehicles to PV development. During the forum questions like
“How will e-mobility enable a faster PV development”, “How could the rapid
development of e-mobility accelerate PV development” and “The involvement of the
car industry in PV: a logical evolution through storage” wil be discussed.
