The International Battery and Energy Storage Alliance IBESA is the first global battery and energy storage network of excellence. Our goal is to strengthen storage companies in their performances and their efficiency in international competition. Together with our sister companies Joint Forces for Solar (JF4S) and Solar & Storage DigiCon (SSDC) we continuously strive to connect and inform the renewable energy industry.

Joint Forces for Solar (JF4S) is a global solar alliance of industry stakeholders ranging from multinational corporations to industry associations and local installation companies who partner in the mission to expand the use of solar technologies at the global, regional and local level and establish a vibrant renewable and clean energy industry. Founded in 2009, the JF4S have grown to be the leading global business and knowledge platform and enabler. Partners benefit from comprehensive support to maximize their brand visibility, connect with other stakeholders and further establish solar energy.

The association SOLAR ACADEMY BULGARIA was founded in response to the need for increased awareness, the establishment of a sustainable strategy for the development of the energy sector in Bulgaria, and the support of education to meet the new needs of the labor market.

The Macedonian Solar Energy Association, Solar Macedonia, is an expert, scientific, educational, and cultural organization dedicated to promoting solar energy. Its main objective is to encourage collaboration among domestic and international companies, including producers, designers, installers, importers, and service providers of solar equipment. The association also brings together experts and scientists from various fields to advance solar energy. As a certified training center for solar installers, Solar Macedonia offers training in the installation of various solar systems (Photovoltaic, Thermal, Photo/Thermal, and Air solar systems) and provides education in solar system design using specialized software, along with workshops on EU and domestic funding opportunities. Furthermore, the organization hosts the annual Solar Conference and Solar Fair MAKSOL EXPO and arranges international visits and joint exhibitions at prominent trade fairs across Europe. Solar Macedonia is involved in all stages of solar energy systems, from production to service and maintenance.

The Solární Asociace (Solar Association) is a Czech organization that brings together companies and professionals working in the field of solar energy. Its goal is to promote the development and use of solar energy in the Czech Republic through advocacy, consulting and education. The association focuses on legislative changes, ensuring quality standards and improving conditions for solar investments. It also provides training, advice and networking for its members, which include manufacturers, suppliers, installers and other professionals. The Solar Association is committed to sustainable energy development and reducing environmental impact through renewable energy.

The Albania Energy Association (AEA) is a not-for-profit industry organization established in 2011 to represent both Albanian and international energy producers and consumers. Its primary mission is to promote the use of sustainable energy within Albania and the Western Balkans. AEA collaborates closely with the Albanian government, national and international energy agencies, the oil and gas industry, renewable energy stakeholders, companies, and investors. The association supports various sectors, including renewable energy (such as hydropower, solar photovoltaic, wind energy, hybrid systems, and battery storage), oil and gas (upstream exploration, development, and environmental social assessment), and future energy initiatives (like distribution system operators, transmission system operators, e-mobility, market analysis, energy policy, and energy transition.

The Romanian Photovoltaic Industry Association (RPIA) is the voice of the solar industry and the associated clean energy value chain, driving the dialogue around the fastest-growing, lowest-cost and most easily deployed energy source in Romania.  We believe that solar power is the key enabler for Romania’s pathway towards carbon neutrality and energy security, helping to shape a green foundation for its modern society and economy.
