The solar industry is moving faster than ever in adopting new cell and module technologies. What once took years to filter into mass production is now being introduced and scaled within remarkably short timelines. This fast pace, in an environment of record-low module prices for quite a while now, is forcing the industry to explore highly cost-effective manufacturing techniques and save on materials wherever possible.
While the reliability of PV modules remains a non-negotiable priority for the solar industry, testing organizations do report quality challenges – but is this more than usual?
The 2025 edition of modules is expected to perform in the field for decades; every design and material decision can have a lasting impact on performance and resilience. Ensuring that innovations in efficiency and cost reduction are matched by equal attention to reliability is essential for maintaining the industry’s credibility.
TaiyangNews Virtual Conference on Reliable PV Module Design, again, brings together experts to discuss how reliable PV module design and mass production can be achieved amid the pressures of rapid innovation and significant costs.
