The Holy Grail of Solar
How to Achieve Investment Confidence and Competitive LCOE in the Covid-19 Era
With Levalized Cost of Electricity (LCOE) being the key driver, the solar industry expects high performance PV modules, produced with the right materials and processes, installed in a well-integrated system that will perform well even beyond its stated lifetime.
This webinar demonstrates how a holistic approach ensures that all components of the LCOE formula work for the benefit of the long-term owner. Neglecting or reducing one aspect can have serious consequences.
The webinar will also discuss recent supply chain and production trends in the industry as the result of COVID-19, historical pricing, and the flight to bankability.
