Presentation:
Can we make solar PV modules that last 30+ years? Yes. Is the industry doing it?

CARBON FOOTRPRINT VS RELIABILITY OF SOLAR PHOTOVOLTAIC MODULES: A NEW DILEMMA?
How reliability and degradation rates impact the carbon footprint of solar PV systems and solar electricity. Implications for today’s industry.

LONG TERM PERFORMANCE AND RELIABILITY OF SILICON HETEROJUNCTION (SHJ) SOLAR MODULES
Track record of field performance for SHJ modules and specific reliability issues of one of the high-efficiency solar technologies with increasing market shares.

INTEGRATED PV IN BUILDINGS AND INFRASTRUCTURES: A CARBON FOOTPRINT PERSPECTIVE
With an extremely low carbon footprint and compared to the carbon intensity of the national electricity mixes, solar PV in buildings (including facades) is a key enabler of the energy transition. Most of the times even for sub-optimal orientations and for nearly all European countries.

THE IMPACT OF PERFORMANCE DEGRADATION CURVES ON THE PROFITABILITY OF SOLAR PV PROJECTS
How reliability and degradation trends (including non-linear ones) impact the profitability and return on investments of solar pv projects in different parts of Europe. Reliability matters!
