The 31st International Photovoltaic Science and Engineering Conference brings together the global solar community for a week of shared discovery and collaboration. Set against the backdrop of Sydney, Australia, the event embraces a hybrid format that welcomes both in-person and virtual participants, ensuring that researchers, industry leaders, and policymakers from every corner of the world can join the conversation. With the ongoing challenges of the global pandemic still affecting travel and connectivity, the organisers have designed a programme that prioritises accessibility without compromising the depth of scientific exchange. Attendees can look forward to plenary sessions, technical presentations, and lively discussions that span the full spectrum of photovoltaic science and engineering.

The conference programme is carefully curated to reflect the most pressing questions and emerging opportunities in renewable energy today. From advances in cell efficiency and module reliability to the integration of solar power into broader energy systems, the sessions offer a varied and healthy discussion across disciplines. A dedicated focus on achieving one hundred percent renewable energy highlights the practical pathways and policy frameworks that can accelerate the global transition. The organising committee has drawn on the expertise of an international network of associations and supporters to ensure that the content is both rigorous and relevant, providing delegates with actionable insights they can carry back to their own work and communities.

Registration for the conference has been structured to accommodate a wide range of participants, from those seeking a light-touch introduction to the field to seasoned professionals requiring full immersion in the programme. A limited number of complimentary session access passes are available for selected key sessions, offering an open door to those who may be new to the photovoltaic community or exploring the field for the first time. For those who wish to experience the entirety of the event, full program access provides entry to every session, the exhibition floor, and networking opportunities designed to foster meaningful connections across the industry.

Beyond the formal programme, the conference is built around the idea that community and connection are essential to scientific progress. The organisers have woven social elements into the schedule, encouraging participants to engage with one another in relaxed and enjoyable settings. Attendees are invited to explore the latest products and innovations in the exhibition space, share ideas during interactive breaks, and participate in activities that add a light-hearted dimension to the proceedings. Whether joining from Sydney or tuning in from a remote island or distant time zone, every participant contributes to a vibrant, international gathering dedicated to advancing the future of solar energy.
