The ISA is a common platform for cooperation among 121 solar resource rich nations. The initiative was jointly launched by PM Modi and President of France, François Hollande on 30 November 2015 in Paris, France. ISA aims to increase the diffusion of solar energy by aggregating markets, developing common standards, taking solar power applications to scale to improve energy access and livelihoods of marginal and unserved communities.

The objective of the RE-Invest series of conference-expos is to showcase India’s renewable energy potential and the Government’s efforts to develop and scale up installed renewable energy capacity to meet the national energy requirement in a socially, economically and ecologically sustainable manner.

Global RE-Invest 2017 edition will not only continue the ongoing information campaign on renewable energy in India to established stakeholders, but also reach out to newer segments of investors and entrepreneurs like start-ups and venture capitalists interested in clean energy.
