The new edition of PV Tech Power – PV Tech Power 24 – is now available to download from the PV Tech Store.

Volume 24 of the journal features insight into a broad array of the downstream industry’s hottest trends and topics as it approaches a critical juncture. The cover feature of this edition explores the introduction of 550W+ panels and the technologies driving them as they look poised to shake up utility-scale solar deployment.

But, as you’ll read, some hurdles still stand in the way and the industry will have to collaborate to overcome them.
