Language Solutions was proud to provide simultaneous interpreting services for the historic inauguration of the Karavasta Photovoltaic Park, the largest green energy project in the Balkans. This landmark occasion marked a significant milestone for sustainable energy in the region, as the park aims to contribute to the energy transition by harnessing solar power. The event was attended by over 120 participants, including high-level government officials, energy sector leaders, and international representatives, reflecting the broad interest and strategic importance of the project. Our team delivered expert Albanian-English interpretation for the photovoltaic park, offering specialized renewable energy interpreting and solar energy translation services tailored to both technical content and policy discussions.

All participants were able to actively contribute to discussions, highlighting the transformative impact of the Karavasta Photovoltaic Park on the future of green energy in the region. As Ermal, the interpreter of the event, noted, “As an interpreter, it’s rewarding to support the region’s energy transition by ensuring clear communication among key stakeholders at this groundbreaking event.”

Our pre-event planning for the Karavasta Photovoltaic Park inauguration began with an in-depth consultation to assess the linguistic and technical needs of the event. With a diverse group of international stakeholders, including energy experts, government representatives, and corporate partners, it was clear that a multilingual approach would be essential to assure full participation in the discussions. We worked closely with the event organizers to understand the various topics and the specific terminology related to renewable energy, sustainability, and the technical aspects of the photovoltaic park. The participants identified English and Albanian as the primary languages spoken, and we carefully tailored our interpretation services to accommodate these needs.

In addition to language selection, we also took into account the event’s structure, which included speeches, technical presentations, and panel discussions. This allowed us to develop a comprehensive interpreting plan that covered both simultaneous and consecutive interpretation requirements. We reviewed the detailed agenda, which covered key topics such as photovoltaic efficiency, solar panel technology, sustainable energy policies, and the future of green energy in the Balkans. This allowed us to prepare our interpreters for the technical discussions, making sure they were equipped to handle specialized terminology throughout the event. Through this planning, the language barriers would not hinder the flow of the event, and all participants, regardless of their language, could engage meaningfully in the important conversations about the future of green energy in the region.

Given the technical nature of the event, with discussions focused on solar energy, green technologies, and renewable energy markets, we selected interpreters with expertise in these sectors. Our interpreters were not only linguistically proficient but also familiar with the energy and sustainability terminology, providing accurate communication throughout the event.

We provided our interpreters with preparation materials ahead of time, including speaker notes, background information on the Karavasta Photovoltaic Park, and industry-specific terminology. This allowed our team to familiarize itself with the subject matter, enhancing accuracy and providing the delivery of clear and seamless interpretation throughout the event.

During the inauguration, we provided simultaneous interpretation for all speeches, panel discussions, and Q&A sessions. Using high-quality simultaneous interpreting equipment, including soundproof booths and wireless receivers, we ensured that attendees could follow the event in their preferred language. The interpretation was delivered in real-time, allowing international guests and local participants to engage without language barriers.

Simultaneous interpretation was especially important for the international stakeholders, ensuring that everyone could participate actively in discussions about the Karavasta Photovoltaic Park and its significance in the region’s energy landscape. Our interpreters worked in rotation, switching every 15 minutes in accordance with European standards for simultaneous interpretation, providing clear and precise translations to keep the event flowing smoothly.
