Webinars

Jinko Solar’s Head of Technical Services Europe, Andrea Viaro, will discuss the award-winning Swan bifacial module with transparent backsheet from DuPont, its features, benefits and differences vs. standard glass-glass modules. Jinko Solar’s new bifacial technology innovations will also be highlighted, specifically covering profitability in deployment at utility-scale PV power plants. Andrea will be joined by Dr. Lars Podlowski, Executive board member of PI Berlin and Director Global Technical Services, who will give a comprehensive introduction to all aspects of bifacial PV technology, with a special focus on benefits and risks industry buyers and investors should pay attention to. Stéphane Lebeau, Senior PV Engineer of DNV GL, will discuss bankability improvement for bifacial technology. Webinar Content: - Gain a comprehensive introduction to bifacial PV modules, looking in detail at the different financial benefits and extra yield potential. - Understand the impact of bifacial modules on the LCOE of a project: calculation of the higher energy generation levels for different environmental conditions and installation setups. - Learn more about the bifacial product roadmap from one of the most innovative companies in the PV industry – the SWAN bifacial module and other innovative projects that are still to be launched in 2019 by Jinko Solar.

ORIGINALLY PRESENTED/RECORDED on 29-05-2019 This webinar was presented by Mr. Philip Napier-Moore, Renewables Programme Leader, Asia Pacific of Mott MacDonald Ltd Key points: - Floating solar is now becoming a mainstream option for developers - Costs are falling and installations becoming ever larger - Technical challenges differ from ground-mounted plants, and require special attention Five key questions that will be addressed by the webinar: - What key milestones has the floating solar industry now reached? - What new opportunities does this progress unlock? - How can we design against natural hazards affecting floating projects? - What additional PV module quality requirements apply? - What other risks and considerations do you need to considered? About the speaker: Phil Napier-Moore leads Mott MacDonald’s technical advisory work for solar and wind power in the Asia Pacific region. Supporting plant investors and lenders from the sector’s infancy in 2008, he has overseen technical inputs to more than 9000 MW of projects in Asia, including 250 plants now in operation. He has directed and managed projects for multilateral agencies, national governments and a large number of private companies, working internationally on low-carbon power projects in 30 countries around the world, in particular within Asia and Europe. A Chartered Energy Engineer, he obtained his Masters of Engineering from Oxford University.

Presented by Andrea Viaro, Head of Technical Service Europe from Jinko Solar, the initiative partner of this webinar, as he outlines the key features and benefits of using ultra high performance modules. Viaro discusses how Jinko Solar’s new technology innovations impact the LCOE and IRR of the PV utility-scale power plants. Viaro is joined by Athanasios Bakalis, Group Technical Director and Nikos Sokos, General Manager MEA and Central Asia of METKA EGN, who presents a currently announced 300MW project in Spain, that will be fully powered by Jinko’s Cheetah modules and will deliberate potential cost benefits and risk assessment of the utility scale projects and what drove METKA EGN to choose Jinko’s ultra-high efficiency modules. Ruben Ron Head of Section Solar Iberia and LATAM for DNV GL, also joined the webinar to discuss an impact of the reliability and bankability of solar panels and how world-class best practices in manufacturing and upholding stringent quality standards, coupled with the use of field-proven components can help protect solar investments?

Driven by the rapid industry transformation, continuous technology evolution and increasingly complex market demands of the solar landscape in recent years, JinkoSolar has utilized its technical leadership to create cutting-edge technologies of tomorrow. Presented for the first time during SNEC 2018 in Shanghai, JinkoSolar Cheetah module is commercially mass-produced monofacial module, bringing the industry into the new age of PV 4.0. Cheetah series has created a new benchmark for ultra-high performing modules with its industry leading performance in metrics such as output, limited degradation, shade tolerance, and durability.

The present study analyses the levelized cost of electricity (LCOE) of PV utility-scale power plants in the first quarter of 2018. It compares different Jinko modules technologies and shows their future developments till 2020 based on technology and market scenarios. Speaker information: Roberto Murgioni holds a BSc in Electrical Engineering and a Masters of Renewable Energies Engineering. Roberto is responsible for the pre-sales and after-sales activities around Europe. Before Joining Jinko he held a variety of similar positions with Trina and ET solar. Prior to that he covered several roles in the engineering dept. starting in Milan and then Munich as a Project Electrical Engineer for various EPC companies, managing large PV power plant projects in EU and LATAM.

The Industry 4.0 principles of distributed continuous data collection and big data analysis are taking hold in China in the context of the Made in China 2025 plan. This webinar looked at how Industry 4.0 and Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) can be applied to quality control.  Listen to the webinar recording to hear from Gordon Deans, Founder & Chief Operating Officer of Aurora Solar Technologies and Finlay Colville, Head of Market Research at PV Tech Research. The webinar covers: •    What’s important: Key PERC performance/quality factors. •    Sensing of critical data •    Using the data to get results (yield and throughput) •    Aurora’s experiences •    What’s next for Industry 4.0 Gordon presented more on this topic at PV CellTech in Penang on the 13-4th March 2018

This webinar provides you with better insight into the components of solar PV panels like backsheet and connectors and how these affect the efficiency of modules and therefore the return of investment (ROI). Andrea Viaro from JinkoSolar introduces the newest technology developments, Olivier Haldi from Stabuli Electrical Connectors will explain why connectors and cabling really matter, and Lucie Garreau-Iles from DuPont will show you how to make the right choices, based on real field data.

This webinar will be hosted by: Richard Rushin from Trina Solar, James Adams from Alexa Capital, Finlay Colville from Solar Media. Liam Stoker from Solar Media will be chairing the event. The content has been designed to educate and provide insight into the different financial models utilised by installers currently active in the commercial rooftop market. Finlay Colville will provide a market update, while James Adams will discuss some of the financial models available for commercial rooftop installations and how they can be suited to the requirements of different customers.

This webinar covers opportunities in: energy storage systems for utility applications, energy storage for renewable facilities, real MW-scale energy storage projects in the USA and Europe, development and results, MW-scale Li-ion batteries, frequency regulation, ancillary services/grid support, VAR support, grid-interactive energy storage systems, impact of energy storage in USA and UK markets.

Topics covered include commercial rooftops around the world, what we know from other markets and implementation with different drivers and financial models.
