The Mid-Atlantic Solar & Storage Industries Association (MSSIA) is presenting a new two-day event: the Mid-Atlantic Solar & Storage Insight Conference May 5-6, 2025, at the Hyatt Regency New Brunswick, New Jersey.
This first-of-its-kind regional event brings together the solar and storage industry’s most influential voices to address the technical, policy and market barriers currently constraining deployment across the tri-state area.
“The Mid-Atlantic region has enormous untapped potential for solar and storage growth, but developers face a complex web of interconnection hurdles, policy uncertainty, and market design challenges,” said MSSIA President Lyle Rawlings. “This conference creates a dedicated forum where solution providers can engage directly with policymakers and utilities to overcome these obstacles.”
The conference agenda tackles the most pressing issues facing project developers and manufacturers in the region, including:
- Storage Market Acceleration: Sessions dedicated to emerging battery incentive programs and value-stacking opportunities across state markets
- Community Solar Expansion: Detailed analysis of New Jersey’s permanent program implementation and Pennsylvania’s nascent market development
- Net-Metering Evolution: Critical insights on upcoming policy shifts that will reshape distributed generation economics
- Grid Modernization & Interconnection Challenges: New Jersey’s growing closed distribution circuit crisis threatens solar and storage expansion, but also presents a unique opportunity for grid modernization that could ensure energy affordability, reliability and sustainable industry growth
The conference includes nine sessions over two days, featuring high-profile speakers and BPU appointees. Day 1 offers two focused afternoon sessions, a keynote from Energy Chairman, Senator Bob Smith, and a networking social event; Day 2 delivers seven in-depth sessions covering the full spectrum of topics, relevant to the solar industry in the Mid-Atlantic.
