SUMMARY:webinar - On-site solar and sustainable electrification in sub-Saharan Africa
DESCRIPTION:On-site solar has the potential to contribute to increasing access to affordable\, reliable\, sustainable\, and modern energy (UN Sustainable Development Goal 7) for businesses and citizens across sub-Saharan Africa. The commercial and industrial (C&I) rooftop market segment has shown strong growth in recent years\, with developers seeking to circumvent administrative barriers and grid issues associated with of large-scale solar projects. \nThere is also a strong market incentive for C&I customers to develop on-site solar projects as it can contribute to their competitiveness. Recent studies have shown that on-site solar is cheaper than electricity tariffs paid by C&I clients in seven markets in sub-Saharan Africa . Furthermore\, on-site solar installations coupled with storage can also provide electricity more reliably than the grid in several markets. In addition to this\, cost reductions and novel business models have made solar accessible for many citizens in sub-Saharan Africa where only 48% of the population had access to electricity in 2018 . Since 2015\, Pay-as-You-Go (PAYG) business models that allow first-time African consumers to buy solar systems on a rent-to-own basis have connected to 5 million households in Africa to off-grid power. \nIn this webinar\, SolarPower Europe in collaboration with GET.invest – a European programme supported by the European Union\, Germany\, Sweden\, the Netherlands\, and Austria – will gather European and African experts of on-site solar to explore the existing opportunities for on-site solar in sub-Saharan Africa. The webinar will include a presentation introducing the main trends\, challenges\, and opportunities for on-site solar in sub-Saharan Africa. The presentation will be followed by an open discussion that will focus on the technical and business innovations that are bringing sustainable electricity to sub-Saharan Africa. \nregister here

SUMMARY:webinar - Risk vs. reward: Optimizing energy yield with 182mm wafers
DESCRIPTION:The shift to larger wafer formats has been by far the most important trend in the PV supply chain over the past year. While other sizes are also being introduced to the market\, the 182mm product is initially expected to represent the largest share. And it is viewed by many as the optimal way to ensure considerable gains in energy yield whist minimizing disruption to supply chain and end markets. \nIn this pv magazine Webinar\, produced in partnership with Jinko Solar\, we’ll delve into these claims surrounding modules based on the 182mm wafer\, taking a closer look at Jinko’s Tiger pro module series. We’ll demonstrate how the Tiger pro achieves savings of more than 2 cents per watt over the previous generation of PV modules\, and why it offers the most effective strategy in terms overall investment cost and rate of return. We’ll also take a look at the market dynamics driving PV this year\, and examine the technologies and strategies likely to come out on top. \nPV InfoLink Chief Analyst Corrine Lin will take us through what we can expect to see in 2021 – as products based on new\, larger wafer formats begin to roll off production lines in significant quantity\, and the market gains new insight into optimal cost/performance strategies\, both in manufacturing and further downstream. Waleed Alhallaj\, Business Development Manager for the Middle East and North Africa at Jinko Solar\, will demonstrate the Tiger Pro’s potential for higher yields\, and how this allows it to achieve savings of more than two cents per watt when it comes to balance of systems costs. \nQuestions can be submitted beforehand or during the webinar through a chat window. Mark Hutchins\, editor at pv magazine\, will be the moderator of this webinar. We look forward to your participation! \nRegister here
