In the wake of Russia's invasion of Ukraine, Europe's energy systems are facing increasing physical
and cyber threats. Strengthening resilience has become a strategic priority. This session explores how solar PV, battery storage and grid-forming technologies can protect critical infrastructure, enhance system stability and support rapid recovery after disruptions.
Drawing on lessons from Ukraine and Europe's frontline states, experts will be discussing how decentralized renewables can contribute to energy security.

Key topics:

• How solar, battery storage and renewables contribute to Europe's energy security
• Lessons from Ukraine on system resilience and recovery
• The strategic role of solar-plus-storage in future security planning
• Integrating security into energy system design and regulation
