As the energy landscape evolves, grids must adapt to support the growing integration of renewables, particularly solar. Meeting the EU's targets requires significant investment and time, making it essential to optimize existing infrastructure and align grid expansion with flexible solutions. This session will showcase projects and provide insights into hybrid utility-scale systems, exploring how solar, combined with technologies like storage and wind, can address grid challenges and drive regulatory reforms for faster renewable integration.
