HAPPENING NOW: Powering the Islands through Solar and Battery Storage
The Asian Photovoltaic Industry Association (APVIA), with the support of the Philippine Solar and Storage Energy Alliance (PSSEA), is convening the technical workshop “Powering the Islands through Solar and Battery Storage” today, November 4, 2026, at ibis Styles Manila, Araneta City, Quezon City.
The workshop brings together government representatives, international experts, technology providers, and energy industry stakeholders to explore practical pathways for expanding solar energy and battery energy storage systems (BESS) in Philippine island communities.
Discussions cover government policies and programs, global experiences, innovative technological solutions, and lessons from Philippine island electrification initiatives.
Recognizing the distinct energy access, reliability, and affordability challenges of island communities, the workshop highlights how solar and battery storage can contribute to more resilient and sustainable power systems.
Through its support for this initiative, PSSEA reaffirms its commitment to industry collaboration and advancing solar and energy storage solutions for a more secure, affordable, and sustainable energy future.
