The EPIA will host the first International Conference on Thin Films in the Solar Photovoltaic sector in November 2008 in Munich, Germany. The event is being held due to the significant ramp in thin-film technologies that is expected through 2010, which could see the technology represent 20 percent of the overall PV module production capacity.

The new conference will focus on production cost reductions and the performance and reliability of the product over a long lifetime. Standardization and recycling of thin-film modules are also topics expected to be covered at the conference.
