The transition to net-zero buildings is no longer an aspiration. It’s a regulatory, market, and societal imperative.
With the EU mandating that all new buildings achieve zero on-site fossil fuel emissions by 2030 and phasing out fossil fuels for heating and cooling in existing buildings by 2040, the construction sector stands at the forefront of Europe’s green transformation.
Against this backdrop, the Solarplaza Summit – Net Zero Buildings will unite architects, developers, investors, policymakers, and innovators to explore one crucial question:
“How can the industry collaborate to make net-zero buildings a reality, and what will they look like?“
As a Strategic Partner, MASS-IPV is proud to contribute to this event through the active participation of its consortium members, who bring a wealth of expertise in BIPV and integrated solar solutions:
- Bruno Bueno (Fraunhofer ISE) – MASS-IPV Project Coordinator
- Pierluigi Bonomo (SUPSI)
- Sander Hoek (Madaster)
- Paul Stassen (BIPV Projects / BIPV.world) – Advisory Board Member and Co-organizer
These experts will share insights on Building-Integrated Photovoltaics (BIPV), smart energy systems, and resilient real-estate strategies, reflecting MASS-IPV’s mission to demonstrate the mass integration of Integrated PV systems into Europe’s buildings and infrastructures.
Why Attend
The Summit will feature:
- Real-world business cases showcasing the ROI and profitability of net-zero building solutions
- Cutting-edge technologies, including BIPV, energy storage, and smart building systems
- High-level networking opportunities with leading stakeholders across the construction, energy, and finance sectors
