50 Extended workplan: Subtask7 Step 1: Development of the visions for solar power generation Preliminary draft (attractive and ambitious) internally Continuous update with stakeholder consultation Step2: Presentation to stakeholder (Task8 -> Stakeholders) Step3: Feedback from stakeholder (Task8 <- Stakeholders) Identify the barriers and possibilities Stimulate communication among stakeholders Step 4: Identify the actions and responsible actors for realization Technical, financial, social, and institutional, Recommendations for stakeholders Step 5: Continuous Communication IEA Task8 Stakeholders Step 1: Development of the visions for Step 2: Presentation to the SH Step 4: Identify actions Step 3: Feedback from SH Overview of Task8 Fukuoka, Japan, 1 December 2011 Step 5: Continuous communication

51 Concluding remarks on the road is a promising option for mass-deployment of PV in the world. Desert regions contain abundant and inexhaustible sources of clean energy. Connected areas are power storage and transmission, irrigation, agriculture, water desalination and hydrogen economy. Task8 will focus on implementation of VLS- PV strategies. A proper scenario for large scale utilization of solar energy will be also discussed. Overview of Task8 Fukuoka, Japan, 1 December 2011
