SWC50 – The Century of Solar Virtual Exhibition

In 1970 solar research pioneers met at the first International Solar Energy Society (ISES) Conference in Melbourne, Australia.

 

ISES is commemorating this Conference with a special 50th Anniversary Virtual Conference, called the Solar World Congress at 50 (SWC50).

 

This event will offer the opportunity for research institutes, companies and individuals to tell their stories about how they helped develop an industry that has grown from watts to gigawatts virtually through their individual displays in a form of online renewable energy museum.
