Webinar: Opportunities in high efficiency, bifacial, and new solar designs

Published by

How quickly should Australian developers and installers embrace new solar technologies in their projects?

Solar technology efficiencies always seem to be increasing. How did we get here and what does it mean for bankable, bifacial projects in Australia?

What can we learn from the international solar supply chain and technology deployment trends?

What considerations should you make before jumping into a new technology in your applications? How can new solar module technology unlock more opportunity for solar deployment in Australia?

Does size matter? As dimensions change what are the implications for customers, site yield and module reliability?

Why it is critical that developers and EPCs have access to best in class module technology for their latest projects. How true partnerships with your module supply chain are integral for generating long term site yield.

How can solar module technology advance your next project and why does bankable supply matter?

Our panel, hosted by RenewEconomy Editor Giles Parkinson, discussed these questions in this free to attend webinar, recorded on June 3, 2020.

Panelists:

Mark Legge – Key Account Director at LONGi Australia

Richard Quan – Product Manager at LONGi Australia

David Owen – Founder of Solar Media Ltd
