White Paper on PV Quality and Reliability

White Paper on PV Quality and Reliability through System Performance Improvement. The white paper will introduce Solar United’s quality activities and will summarize the context, explain the future actions and pave the way for the creation of ad hoc technical working groups.

Proceedings of the Annual Conference

Proceedings of the two annual ETIP PV conferences in 2017 and 2018

Proceedings of workshops as required by the Steering Committee

Proceedings of the workshops organized on request by the Steering Committee

Other publications on request by the working groups

The existing Working Groups of the ETIP PV are working on relevant topics for the further development of the PV sector. EUREC with the support from WIP will assist them to produce recommendations in the form of published reports.

Implementation Plan to achieve the strategic targets of the SET Plan Declaration on PV

The Steering Committee Members will determine joint and/or coordinated actions, identify the ways in which the EU and national research and innovation programs could most usefully contribute, identify the contributions of the private sector, research organisations, and universities, identify all issues of a technological, socio-economic, regulatory or other nature that may be of relevance in achieving the targets of the SET Plan Declaration on PV, and report regularly on the progress with the purpose to monitor the realisation of the targets and take rectifying action where and whenever necessary. All results will be collected in the form of an Implementation Plan.

Updates of the fact sheets

The existing fact sheets will be updated if necessary and new fact sheets on the State of the Art of the PV sector based on the reports collected will be developed. The fact sheets will be available on the ETIP PV website and will focus on the key points in PV. SOLARUNITED will provide support drafting partly by sharing the most updated and relevant data drawn from its industry, market and technology analysis produced in the course of its regular activities. In this sense SOLARUNITED will provide regular updates to the Members of the ETIP PV on the latest analyses studies and publications produced.

Press releases for communication to the general public

Press releases will be issued if relevant news is to be communicated to the wide public, e.g. important milestones or publications from the Platform (typical occasions are the ETIP PV Annual Conferences, as well as important achievements in the course of the project). The press releases will be also available on the website. Localized press activities can be carried out, targeting all relevant media (trade magazines, channel and daily press, TV, radio, etc.).
