Installer Awards

Join us at RE+ Portugal as we shine a spotlight on the vital role of installers in driving Portugal’s clean energy transition! As more households and businesses throughout Portugal move towards energy independence—embracing solar photovoltaics and energy storage installers serve as the crucial link between manufacturers and end customers. Their expertise and dedication are essential to scaling up solar and storage solutions and making Europe’s energy future more sustainable. 

For over 24 years, EUPD Research has collaborated with thousands of installers across Europe, providing industry-leading insights into their needs and preferences. These findings have shaped the industry and are frequently referenced by companies, associations, and government agencies worldwide. 

All attendees will be able to participate in the Networking Reception and Installer Awards on June 5, 2025! View the full agenda for more details.
