About the CEO Caucus
The International Solar Alliance (ISA) launched the CEO Caucus as a high-level platform to convene C-suite executives, industry leaders, and policymakers from the solar energy sector. Building on the success of the 2024 CEO Caucus Roundtables, this initiative focuses on key imperatives, including diversifying global supply chains, ensuring equitable access to cutting-edge technology, mobilizing capital to accelerate solar projects, and advocating for policy frameworks that enable sustainable growth in the sector.
In collaboration with TERI and the Becquerel Institute, the CEO Caucus facilitates structured roundtable discussions that delve deeply into these challenges, generating actionable insights for stakeholders. Spanning four strategic regions—Caribbean and Latin America, Africa, Asia-Pacific, and Europe & Others—the CEO Caucus integrates diverse regional perspectives. The outcomes of these engagements are meticulously documented in policy briefs and white papers, offering pragmatic solutions and a roadmap for stakeholders to follow. By uniting thought leaders from industry, research, and policymaking, the CEO Caucus exemplifies a transformative approach to advancing solar energy.
