Storage & Smart Grids

Utility-scale PV in Europe is set for rapid growth in 2021. But with opportunities come challenges, and new large scale solar markets are emerging in new regions and countries. This geographical expansion can mean complications when it comes to grid connection requirements, supply chain management, and system design and construction. Join this special pv magazine Webinar to hear from market analysts, technologists, and project financiers, to learn how the new generation of solar project components can unlock 2021’s market opportunities.

Whether by design or necessity, the allure of an interconnected home, one which generates, manages and uses all of its own electricity on-site, grows by the day. LG states this vision was critical in the launch of its new NeON R ACe AC residential solar module. With a built-in micro-inverter, the product has been designed specifically for ease of installation and without the level of complication that can overwhelm new consumers. In this pv magazine Webinar, we will discuss if LG’s NeON Ace is the complete solution to enable the home of the future.

With the share of photovoltaics growing rapidly everywhere in the world, the energy transition is entering a new phase. For the next leg, the integration of PV will become much more important and PV plants will have to become smarter, more flexible and more integrated into overall energy networks.

In this pv magazine Webinar, produced in partnership with Ginlong Solis, we’ll take a closer look at the Solis-HVES inverter series, and its secure smart home solution.

With grid congestion and curtailment plaguing utility-scale PV development in many parts of Australia and the proposed 5-minute settlement by AEMO, live from October 2021, the case for coupling solar arrays to large-scale storage is becoming increasingly compelling. But how can solar + storage projects be effectively executed? And what are the keys for developing a successful business model?

As battery energy storage technologies assume a bigger role in the global transition to renewable energy, the importance of developing and operating a safe system is paramount. In this pv magazine Webinar together with our initiative partner Clean Energy Associates (CEA), we will look at current safety trends in battery energy storage system design and installation, along with a review of relevant safety standards in the U.S.

This pv magazine Webinar will investigate the prevalence of cracking and its impacts on plant performance, with data gathered from a wide range of crystalline silicon modules already installed and in operation, and examine how First Solar’s thin-film modules present a very different scenario when it comes to the risk of cracking. Join the discussion with our four experts!

The five Gigawatt Winners pitch their winning applications to the expert jury panel with a subsequent discussion by the independent leading analysts.

The Gen24 Plus is a hybrid inverter or DC coupled system. Such inverters allow multiple energy flows into the battery and the household at the same time. The clue; such a system setup does not require an extra battery inverter.

LG share its view on the combination of PV, battery storage system and heat pump to cover all of the house’s heat consumption, and to discuss key components of its system in detail in our pv magazine webinar
