San Francisco to Host First Winter Solar Energy Summit
San Francisco announced it will host the inaugural Winter Solar Energy Summit at the Moscone Center, bringing together experts from around the world to discuss advancements in solar technology and strategies for expanding renewable energy during the colder months. The two-day summit will feature panels on energy storage, community solar programs, and innovative solar design for urban environments.
“San Francisco is proud to lead the conversation on sustainable energy solutions,” said Mayor London Breed. The event will also showcase local startups developing cutting-edge solar panels and systems optimized for low-light conditions.
Advocates praised the summit for addressing the challenges of maintaining renewable energy production year-round, but critics called for a stronger focus on affordability for low-income communities. Organizers plan to release a white paper summarizing key takeaways and actionable steps after the event.
