This article continues our series of features introducing new methodology that allows leading PV module producers to be categorised, ranked and short-listed by manufacturing and financial strength metrics; ultimately providing an investor-risk (or bankability) profile of PV module suppliers for non-residential end-market selection.

The third PV ModuleTech conference takes place in Penang, Malaysia on 22-23 October 2019, with the agenda of speakers, companies and topics largely complete. One of the key companies presenting at PV ModuleTech this year is Clean Energy Associates, one of the industry leaders in factory auditing, inline monitoring of assembly lines and inspection of modules pre-shipment.

Scythia Solar 2 is located in the Zaporizhia region in Ukraine’s south and has a peak capacity of 33.1MW.

Once again this year, PV ModuleTech is shaping up to be the go-to event to learn which module suppliers are the ones being consistently chosen for large-scale global PV projects. The event is now firmly established in the PV events calendar, and the session topics reflect the new trends in module assembly, factory auditing, inspection and related due-diligence studies.

Ongoing cost and efficiency improvements will offset any damage done by the potential closure of the ITC, says NextEra Energy Partners.

Without the ITC solar will generate 12% of US electricity in 2030 instead of 16%, according to the SEIA.

Sungrow, Jinko and Tongwei among the names to be awarded hundreds of MWs of project capacity.

The PV industry roadmap - and related metrics of technology and bankability - are now being driven by leading module supplier, JinkoSolar, with others seeking to replicate Jinko’s product line options, trying to differentiate in markets that are receptive to low-cost alternatives, or focusing only on rooftop markets where volumes are lower and sales/distribution efforts are more intensive.
