deSOLaSOL European Meeting

deSOLaSOL European Meeting Supporting joint-investment in Solar Photovoltaic Projects
Madrid, 20th June 2008

deSOLaSOL is a European co-operation project that aims at bringing photovoltaic energy closer to the people. More precisely, deSOLaSOL aims at raising the awareness about PV energy, and in particular on its decentralised deployment, through the promotion of grid-connected jointly-owned PV plants.

The meeting will bring together representatives from the project partner entities, the Academy, the business and environmental sector. The aim is to expound the different points of view about investment on photovoltaic energy and about its access for small and medium investors. Some best practices regarding the promotion of citizen participation in photovoltaic projects will be shown.
