How to Get to RE+ (Solar Power International)

Public Transit / Monorail

The Las Vegas Monorail has a dedicated Convention Center station with direct service to Strip hotels from MGM Grand to the Sahara. A single ride is $5 and a full-day pass is $13. During peak convention hours the monorail is often faster than driving.

Rideshare (Uber / Lyft)

Uber and Lyft have a designated pickup and dropoff area on Convention Center Drive. Surge pricing is common during morning arrivals and evening departures — stagger your schedule to avoid the rush.

The north end of the Las Vegas Strip is about a 15-minute walk from the LVCC. The monorail makes it easy to reach central and south Strip hotels in under 10 minutes.

Insider Tips

RE+ (Solar Power International) Tips for First-Timers

RE+ is massive. Download the RE+ app and plan your route by technology area — solar, storage, wind, hydrogen, and EV charging are in separate zones.
Wear comfortable shoes. The combined show floor spans multiple halls and you will walk 15,000 or more steps per day.
Bring a portable phone charger. Between navigating the floor plan, scanning badges, and taking photos of equipment specs, your battery drains fast.
The education sessions are outstanding. Topics range from IRA incentive policy to utility-scale project finance to residential installation best practices. Block time for at least two or three sessions.
Visit the startup pavilion and innovation showcase. Many of the most interesting clean energy technologies debut at RE+ before they hit the broader market.
If you are an installer or contractor, prioritize the hands-on training sessions and product demonstrations. These are some of the most practical content available.
Network intentionally. RE+ brings the full clean energy ecosystem together — developers, financiers, manufacturers, and policymakers. The connections here can drive your business for years.
