PV-Module Reliability Workshop 2014, JUNE 3rd to 4th, 2014 in FREIBURG
The reliability of PV modules plays an important role in the current debate on photovoltaic power supply of renewable energies. Their durability and resistance are key factors for investment decisions and for the "bankability" of PV installations. Following the other event organized in 2013 in Chambery (France), Fraunhofer ISE and JRC organized June 3rd to 4th, 2014 in Freiburg Germany SOPHIA PV-module-reliability-workshop-2014 to discuss latest results and developments on life testing, standardization and how changes in temperature, ultraviolet radiation effect, moisture, salt and high voltage acting on the modules lifetime.
