CLEANPOWER 2020
The WINDPOWER Conference and Exhibition will continue in 2021 as the heart of CLEANPOWER, with the addition of exhibition space and conference programming for utility-scale solar, storage, and other clean energy technologies. By incorporating these technologies into a single exhibition hub, CLEANPOWER will create efficiencies for exhibitors and attendees with pan-renewable business models. Pure play businesses will benefit from increased show traffic and opportunities to build beneficial partnerships across the cleantech industry. Unfortunately, CLEANPOWER 2020 has been cancelled due to the COVID-19 outbreak, but here’s a look at what you would have seen at the show.
