SUPPLIER BENCHMARKING PROGRAM | PV MODULE
The program provides an objective method for benchmarking the quality of PV module suppliers. It helps clients better assess the risks and opportunities associated with potential vendors
To supply PV equipment buyers and power plant investors with independent, consistent reliability and performance data to support implementation of an efective supplier management process. To provide independent recognition to module manufacturers who outpace their competitors in product quality and durability.
It involves simulating the various environmental conditions that PV modules will be exposed to during their lifetime. Beyond leading to international market access and global recognition, PV module testing and certification services identify potential improvements in your manufacturing process.
This laboratory can test more than 200 photovoltaic modules per day with an uncertainty of less than 3%. Due to its characteristics, it is capable of testing modules of up to 1400 x 2700 mm of different types (high efficiency crystalline modules, bifacial modules, thin film modules and PERC or HJT solar cells).
Our PQP links module manufacturers to over 400 developers, investors and installers that use our data. From mechanical stress to backsheet durability to LeTID, our PV Module PQP addresses the industry's top reliability and performance concerns for a wide range of technologies.
