pv magazine Week Europe | Session 2 - Application-specific modules: Innovation or market pressure?

Across many regions, the easiest places to deploy solar have already been tapped. Projects are increasingly planned in harsh environments, while niches such as floating PV and agrivoltaics continue to grow. This has led several manufacturers to introduce modules designed specifically for a certain environment or application.

This session will look at these modules and what they mean for the market — and whether this is a long-term trend with real benefits for the industry, or more the result of tough competition in the PV module space.
