Speaking Opportunities


image The Microgrid Global Innovation Forum focuses on the latest technology advances and business models for the deployment of hybrid renewable energy microgrids in grid-connected and off-grid (remote, rural and island) environments. A series of in-depth presentations and interactive panel discussions will examine the most recent technology advances, case studies, and lessons learned to date.

Individuals who wish to deliver a presentation should submit the following:
    1. Speaker name, title, company, and contact information
    2. Presentation title
    3. Abstract of presentation (150 - 200 words)
    4. Speaker biography and photo
    5. Bullet list of 3-4 Key Learning Points
Proposals should be emailed to info@microgridinnovation.com by Friday, June9, 2023.

Additional Guidance
  • We ask that proposals be non-commercial in nature. Submissions will be carefully reviewed by the Program Advisory Group to ensure depth of information and relevance to the program.

  • Presentations that emphasize case studies, best practices, and real-world results are particularly welcome.
