Outcomes from the JRC-ESA joint workshop on advanced PV measurements and reliability
This report summarises the topics and the discussions held at the workshop on “Advanced PV Measurements and Reliability”, which was organised jointly by the European Solar Test Installation (ESTI) of the European Commission's Joint Research Centre (JRC) and by the European Space Technology and Research Centre (ESTEC) of the European Space Agency (ESA). This workshop was one of the collaborative initiatives falling under the administrative agreement signed in 2013 between JRC and ESA.
The workshop on “Advanced PV Measurements and Reliability” was held online on 11th and 12th November 2020, with more than 50 participants from both space and terrestrial PV communities and a balanced representation between them. Participants were from PV calibration and testing laboratories, national metrological institutes, university, public and private research centres, as well as manufacturing companies of PV cells, instrumentation and services. The areas covered by the workshop were the reliability of PV cells and ensembles, the standardisation for PV and the state-of-the-art best practices in the characterisation and calibration of PV cells, assemblies and modules. Good practices as well as present and foreseeable future challenges were reported and discussed. Some conclusions and recommendations on future collaborations and activities were drawn, too, and are presented here.
