What to expect at RE+ (Solar Power International) - North America's Largest Clean Energy Event

Energy shows bring together large operators and specialist suppliers. Conversations are technical, deals are large, and visitors often attend specific conference tracks and visit only a shortlist of exhibitors.

Over four days, traffic usually peaks on the first two days and thins out on the last one. The quieter final day is a good time for longer conversations, visiting other stands and meeting suppliers. Expect most visitors to be utility and grid operators and their colleagues, often with a short list of suppliers they want to see.

• Prepare technical data sheets and certifications for each market you serve.
• Brief the team on current policy and incentive changes, which come up in many conversations.

Booth tips for RE+ (Solar Power International) - North America's Largest Clean Energy Event

• Show performance data and installed references prominently; energy buyers trust track records.
• Qualify by project stage: planning, tender or construction.
• Keep a meeting area for longer technical discussions away from the aisle noise.
• Walk the hall at Las Vegas Convention Center during move-in to see which entrances and aisles carry the most traffic, and set up your booth so it faces that flow.
• Plan shifts of three to four hours. Standing and talking for four days wears people out, and tired staff let good leads walk past.
• Capture every conversation the moment it ends: scan the badge or card, add a one-line note about what the visitor needs, and rate the lead hot, warm or cold. Notes written that evening are already half forgotten.

Getting to Las Vegas

Fly into Harry Reid International Airport (LAS), about 15 minutes by car from the Strip and the Las Vegas Convention Center. The Las Vegas Monorail runs along the east side of the Strip to the convention center, and the Venetian Expo and Mandalay Bay sit on the Strip itself. Big show weeks push room rates up sharply, so book early and check for resort fees. International visitors should check whether they need a visa or an ESTA before booking travel.

Hotels closest to the venue sell out first during show week, and many organizers offer discounted room blocks that close weeks before the show, so book early. Our city travel guides cover hotels, transport and budgeting for the busiest show cities.
