SiliconPV 2021 & nPV

Share

For the first time in its history, the 11th edition of SiliconPV will take place online as a virtual event. It will cover the latest trends and results in advanced technologies, materials and concepts for crystalline Si solar cells and modules. The Institute for Solar Energy Research Hamelin (ISFH) will host the event and will welcome participants to share and discuss the latest results and findings in the field.

SiliconPV 2021 will again display the most recent progress for reducing the cost of solar electricity from crystalline silicon PV including research on cell architectures including tandem cells, cell processes, modules, measurement, and simulation techniques. The program in 2021 will be close to the well-known form of the on-site conferences of the last years: You will find high-level scientific talks, poster sessions, question and answer rounds and lively discussions, a sponsor area and many opportunities for social exchange between all PV experts from science and industry.

SiliconPV in Conjunction with the nPV Workshop

As in the last years, the nPV workshop takes place successively to the SiliconPV conference with one overlapping day on Wednesday. It will give you a complete overview of all trends, innovations and developments of n-type technology.
