Optimizing the DC cabling networking structure to maximise yield for LCoE gain
Ensuring quality cabling is crucial to the overall solar power output, and as such there are key issues that require consideration. Fixing issues after installation can be costly and reduce solar output, reducing yield and LCoE gain. Many of these challenges can be addressed through careful planning and an optimized, intelligent cable routing management system. Which is why LEONI have developed the concept iC/DCabling Harnessing Solution Plug ‘n Play. Join our webinar to understand how Plug ‘n Play, in combination with an intelligent Cable Routing Management (iCRM) can reduce the costs of DC cabling.
Solar design for new construction: Opportunities and challenges
As a new market emerges due to the growing demand for solar on new buildings, contractors and installers need new design and sales processes to effectively serve this sector. This webinar, in partnership with Aurora Solar, will showcase how contractors can overcome the challenges of designing PV systems for new residential and commercial buildings. Policy […]
Building bankable utility-scale solar PV+energy storage projects
With declining costs, and increasing amounts of solar+storage added to electrical grids across the globe, there is a growing need to understand how to build bankable projects. The creation of multi-use business cases is key. In this upcoming pv magazine webinar, powered by Sterling & Wilson, we will discuss the bankability of utility-scale solar PV […]
Don’t bury the problem! How a new TÜV standard will significantly alter expectations of cables for direct burial
This webinar is a part of a series examining the “key indicators of PV quality” in partnership with Leoni. The direct burial of cables at PV power plants can be a cost-effective approach – ensuring that cabling is out of the worst weather conditions and cannot be damaged by maintenance crews or local critters. However, […]
K2 presents new flat roof mounting system, support pad with a higher friction coefficient
During pv magazine‘s upcoming webinar, K2 Systems will present two recent PV developments designed for flat roofs: The aerodynamically optimized mounting systems, D-Dome V and S-Dome V. The V-geometry of the east-west mounting system has been designed to allow for expansion and contraction in rail orientation, which might occur as a result of the heating […]
Short term thinking, long lived value: How ‘energy solutions as a service’ change the game
Extending the ‘as-a-service’ concept to energy can help integrate renewable energy resources into electricity portfolios – where previously it may have proven difficult. Additionally, by utilizing a rental energy system, businesses can reduce their peak demand, save costs and protect the grid from isolated peak demand events. A growing number of companies across a wide […]
Cutting expenditure at the cost of investment returns? The real value of durable materials and components in optimizing solar’s LCOE.
Quality 3.0: Three PV industry leaders join forces to take quality assurance to the next level. Having worked with all three on quality issues in the past, pv magazine now brings together JinkoSolar, DuPont and Stäubli to discuss quality assurances that goes well beyond simple “marketing speak”. It’s not a new story: Cost pressures are […]
Selecting suitable storage: When to choose CSP+thermal or PV+battery for your project
According to the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA), global installed solar power currently stands at 390 GW. Of that figure, 385 GW is solar PV, while the remaining 5 GW comprises concentrated solar power (CSP). While installed solar PV capacity vastly outpaces CSP, it must be noted that the majority of the 5 GW of […]
Has large-scale solar got its sums right?
Panel prices are rising as project costs are tumbling – but is the drive for lower tariffs doing more harm than good?
