Mitigating Module Risk in PV Project Development

With rampant overcapacity and pricing declines leading to severely compressed profit margins, there is more pressure on PV materials and components manufacturers to sacrifice quality for cost than ever before. Not coincidentally, anecdotal stories of underperforming PV systems, large warranty claims and negative investor returns perpetuate across the industry, undermining the notion of modules being a commodity product.

This webinar discusses the risks and ramifications of module performance and reliability in the field, the limitations of standard testing and certifications in predicting long-term field performance, and best practices for solar EPCs and developers with regard to module procurement and product risk.
