Smart manufacturing as the key to Europe’s energy future

The European solar industry is at a crossroads. Integrated and customised photovoltaic (PV) solutions are increasingly in demand, yet large-scale adoption and a viable business case remain challenging. How can Europe strengthen its competitiveness and ensure that solar manufacturing plays a central role in the clean energy transition?

At Solar Flexible, leading experts, policymakers, and industry representatives will reflect on the lessons learned so far and discuss the conditions for success in the years ahead. The event brings together technology, economics, and policy to identify pathways for scaling up smart, flexible solar manufacturing in Europe.

  • Gain insights into the latest developments in solar technology and manufacturing innovation.
  • Explore opportunities for collaboration between industry, knowledge institutions, and government.
  • Join the discussion on how Europe can secure a competitive and resilient PV value chain.
  • Experience innovation first-hand during a guided tour of the TNO Mass Customisation Pilot Laboratory, where participants will see advanced mass customisation research for photovoltaics in action.

This event is designed for:

  • Industry leaders and innovators in solar energy and advanced manufacturing.
  • Policymakers and regional decision-makers working on the energy transition.
  • Researchers and academics focusing on PV, energy systems, and materials.
  • Start-ups and SMEs exploring opportunities in flexible solar technologies.

  • Date & Time: 27 November 2025, 12:00 – 18:00
  • Location: Brainport Industries Campus, Eindhoven
  • Hosted by:
    • TNO (Energy & Materials Transition – Solar Technology and Applications / Solar Energy)
