Solar Energy UK Installer Roadshow 2015
Solar Energy UK Installer Roadshow is a series of half day seminars that provide an accessible, educational opportunity for SME and commercial installers to learn more about all the latest trade essentials for running a successful solar business in the upcoming year.

We will address commercial rooftops, how to sell solar to a business, evolving standards such as MCS, finance and how the industry can improve quality overall to the benefit of installer businesses, customers and the longevity of the industry.

OPTICS FOR ENERGY
WEDNESDAY 4th February 2015: 14.00
Venue: Cedar Room, Hugh Nisbet Building: Heriot Watt University, Edinburgh
Whether it is lighting or solar cells, there is almost always a requirement to use optics or optical manipulation to maximise the efficiency and effectiveness of devices. This event will consider the latest in optical materials and techniques to address these challenging applications.
Taking the format of short, high-impact talks, and networking opportunities this workshop aims to identify opportunities for collaborative research that could be addressed by collaborations between SU2P, SISER (ETP), ILC, partners and others. Coffee breaks are scheduled with ample time to allow networking and follow-up of topics introduced in the presentation sessions.
Contributions are invited:
- Academic staff and industrial researchers are invited to deliver 5-minute presentations, with an additional 2-minutes provided for questions. Presentations should highlight a promising scientific or technical capability, or alternatively should define an important unsolved problem in the theme area.
