The world possesses what a solar economy professor describes as unlimited potential for renewable electricity, and the key to unlocking it lies in profitability, according to pv magazine. Christian Breyer, a professor for Solar Economy at Finland’s LUT University, argued that positive business cases are what is needed to drive progress, invoking a 1990s campaign slogan associated with former US president Bill Clinton to illustrate the point.
Breyer’s position centers on the idea that renewable electricity generation faces no fundamental resource constraint, and that the decisive factor for deployment is the existence of favorable commercial conditions. The reference to a political campaign phrase from the 1990s served as a rhetorical device to emphasize that economic incentives, rather than technical limits, govern the pace of adoption.
The remarks come amid a broader calendar of industry activity. A conference is scheduled for Thursday, October 1, 2026, running from 14:30 to 15:30 CEST in Rome. A separate event is set for Tuesday, September 22, 2026, from 11:00 to 12:00 CEST, also in Rome. Another session is planned for Monday, October 26, 2026, from 10:30 am to 11:30 am CEST, with participation across Berlin, Paris, and Madrid.
Additional industry gatherings include a two-day conference in Austin, Texas, that brings together leaders in US solar manufacturing, equipment specification, and factory execution. In Saudi Arabia, the SunRise Arabia Clean Energy Conference 2026 in Riyadh is positioned to explore how solar PV and energy storage are powering the kingdom’s digital economy as the country accelerates its clean energy transition. Meanwhile, pv magazine USA hosts a multi-day virtual event covering US solar and energy storage, with topics spanning domestic manufacturing, distributed energy, and the growing role of solar-plus-storage in meeting power demand.
