Supplier Qualification
PVEL will work directly with you to develop a supplier qualification program that will minimize your investment risk. Most solar panel underperformance issues are kept quiet; understandably, since no manufacturer, developer, or investor wants to concede any deviations from high quality. Even some of the most respected suppliers have recently experienced major product recalls caused by rapid performance degradation, arcing in the junction box, cell cracks, anti-reflective glass coating delamination, and junction box adhesive failures.Most popular related searches
The results of field testing from the. JRC European Commission highlight performance degradation after long-term outdoor exposure by module type. This study looked at the aging behavior of 23 modules subjected to 18-24 years of grid-connection operation. 34% of panels in the study degraded more than 20%. This data pool highlights the importance of understanding the behavior of panels in order to minimize risk from quality deviations in the available supply. The dedicated and experienced team at PV Evolution Labs will help you navigate the complexities of supplier qualification.
