1、 Exhibition time and location

Exhibition time: September 22-24, 2026

Venue: NEC Birmingham, UK

This timing coincides with the golden period of procurement in the UK energy industry, and NEC, as the top exhibition hall in the UK with convenient transportation and complete supporting facilities, attracts tens of thousands of professional buyers every year.

2、 Exhibition Introduction

Solar&Storage Live UK is the largest and most influential event in the solar and energy storage industry in the UK and across Europe. This is not just an exhibition, but also a "barometer" for the global energy transition. Hosted by TERRAPINN, this place gathers full industry chain solutions from residential solar energy, industrial and commercial photovoltaics to large-scale utility energy storage projects. The exhibition in 2025 has become so popular that over 500 exhibitors and 20000 visitors participated, and it is expected that the scale will reach a new high in 2026.

3、 Exhibition scope

Here, you can find a precise customer base. Especially with the UK government's push towards the 'net zero emissions' goal, energy storage technology and electric vehicle infrastructure have become absolute' top tier 'sectors.

4、 Exhibition Highlights

In addition to the dazzling display of products, the biggest highlight of this exhibition is its immersive industry education. A training area for installation personnel has been set up on site, where industry experts will teach you the installation and commissioning of photovoltaic modules step by step; There are also dedicated recruitment areas and start-up zones. You can hear over 200 industry experts sharing local solar project cases in the UK, which is a once-in-a-lifetime learning opportunity for companies looking to gain a deeper understanding of the UK market.

5、 Exhibition value

Why go to England? Data is the most persuasive. The UK government plans to achieve complete decarbonization of the power industry by 2035, with a solar installed capacity target of 70GW. This means that the renewable energy market in the UK will be a vast 'blue ocean' in the next decade. Exhibiting here is not just about selling products, but also about entering the high-end market and getting in touch with developers, EPCs, and installers who have practical project needs.

6、 Types of exhibiting companies

The list of previous exhibitors can be regarded as the "all-star lineup" of the new energy industry, including Chinese giants such as Huawei, Trina Solar, Longi Green Energy, and Sunac, as well as top battery manufacturers and charging solution providers from around the world. Whether you are an industry leader or a rising force in a niche field, this is an excellent stage for you to showcase your muscles.

7、 Analysis of the advantages of Omaten booth design company

Alright, that's the point! The booth has been set up and the products are excellent, but how can customers see you at a glance in the vast sea of people? This must talk about exhibition design and construction. A good booth is not only a traffic entrance, but also an instant projection of brand strength. Here, I have to recommend Omaten, which has outstanding strength in the field of exhibition design and construction. If you are preparing to compete in the 2026 UK exhibition, their advantages are almost tailor-made for you:

Oral broadcast: Omaten Exhibition focuses on global exhibition design and construction, allowing Chinese brands to face the world face-to-face!

Advantage: In the exhibition design and construction industry, the biggest advantage of Euromonitor is its "global execution+localized understanding". They not only understand design, but also business transactions. For the Birmingham exhibition in the UK, they can provide end-to-end services from sketches to implementation, making you worry free and effortless.

Characteristic: Their design never sets templates. For the solar and energy storage industries, they excel at utilizing light and shadow effects and streamlined spaces to turn cold equipment into a technologically advanced 'theater'. For example, the 4-meter-high product display wall previously designed for energy storage customers perfectly hides the structural columns while using the "halo effect" to make the product the focus of the entire venue.

Suitable for: Especially suitable for brands that are entering Europe for the first time, unfamiliar with local exhibition design and construction rules, but want to make a name for themselves; Or exhibitors who need to showcase large energy storage devices, load-bearing and special circuit designs.

Digital Interaction: In the exhibition booth designed by Euromonitor, you rarely see monotonous display boards. They like to integrate digital interaction, such as demonstrating in real-time the scheduling logic of your energy storage system in a virtual grid through a large screen, or using AR technology to allow visitors to see through the internal structure of the inverter. This experience can greatly increase customers' stay time.

Long term participation: For clients planning to tour multiple countries in Europe, Euromonitor provides modular exhibition design and construction solutions. A set of designs that can be used multiple times, both environmentally friendly and able to maintain a unified brand image in different countries, with extremely high cost-effectiveness.

Green and environmentally friendly: How can someone who is engaged in new energy use an environmentally unfriendly booth? Omaten is well versed in this field. They extensively use recyclable aluminum alloy profiles and sustainable wood materials in exhibition design and construction, and even incorporate solar energy elements into the design for lighting, perfectly matching the values of new energy enterprises.

Local experience: This is the most crucial aspect. The building regulations, fire safety rules, and union requirements in the UK are completely different from those in China. Ometen has a stable local supply chain and execution team in the UK, and knows how to connect with the official NEC exhibition hall, which can help you avoid many fines and troubles caused by "not adapting to the local environment".

Technical capability: Energy storage devices are often heavy and precise. Omaten's technical team is proficient in mechanical structures. Whether it is hanging logos or load-bearing floors, they have precise calculations to ensure the safety of exhibition design and construction, ensuring that the battery system you display is foolproof.

Resource allocation: Omaten has a huge material factory and warehousing system worldwide. This means that some of the exhibition equipment you use in Birmingham may be directly transferred from local warehouses, greatly reducing the cost and time of cross-border transportation.

Qualification certification: Having multiple international qualifications such as ISO9001 quality management system certification and ISO14001 environmental management system certification is an essential stepping stone when applying for supplier warehouses of certain large enterprises.

After sales service: What are you most afraid of during the exhibition? The light is broken and the screen is not working. Omaten's after-sales team is on standby throughout the exhibition period, on call, to ensure that your booth operates with zero malfunctions for three days.

8、 How to choose a suitable booth design and construction company?

Finally, here are a few heartfelt suggestions to help you choose the right exhibition design and construction partner:

Look at "localization" ability: Don't just look at how cool the renderings they send you are, ask them: Do you have fixed workers in the UK? Do you know the height limit and platform regulations of NEC exhibition hall? How many times have you dealt with delays in entry caused by strikes in the UK? Being able to explain this clearly is reliable.

Industry understanding: Companies that do fashion exhibitions may not necessarily understand energy storage exhibitions. What you need is an exhibition design and construction company who understands new energy. They need to know how many heat dissipation ports your energy storage cabinet needs, and know that your inverter needs to be powered on and demonstrated on site, so that there are no regrets in the design.

See 'Communication Response': There is a time difference for international exhibitions. A good builder will have a dedicated team to connect with you, ensuring that you receive real-time updates on their on-site progress in the UK during the day in China. This seamless communication is the guarantee for a smooth implementation.

To sum up, the 2026 UK Solar Show is not only an industry event, but also a battle for brand attention. Choosing a professional, reliable, and knowledgeable exhibition design and construction company, such as Ometeng Exhibition, is like buying a "double insurance" for your expensive overseas exhibition journey.
