Where Capital Meets Asset Performance:​

Maximizing BESS and Solar Value​

Solar & Storage Finance Summit USA is returning for its 13th edition in September; the event is designed to bring together leaders at the forefront of financing and deployment of both solar and storage projects.

The 2026 edition arrives at the most complex financing moment the US solar and storage market has faced since the Inflation Reduction Act passed in 2022. Safe harbor has closed. FEOC compliance is now a commercial reality. Private credit is under stress, and power demand is accelerating faster than anyone predicted, driven by data center buildout, electrification, and industrial load growth.

Two days of finance-first content will span FEOC compliance and post-safe-harbor economics, California’s merchant revenue collapse, how private credit will be redeployed to protect return of investment, data center offtake structures, LDES bankability, life after the solar ITC, and where active equity is deployed in 2027.
