Clubs of photovoltaic players to build the sector of tomorrow.

Greenhouse cultivation is one of the sustainable development tools available to French agriculture to achieve food sovereignty. It helps meet the national demand for fruit and vegetable consumption while minimizing the use of phytosanitary products and protecting against climatic hazards. The integration of photovoltaic technologies in these structures is a step forward towards more efficient and environmentally friendly agriculture. Many initiatives are underway to

In France, it is estimated that 151 tonnes of photovoltaic panels will have reached the end of their useful life in 000. Recycling solar panels is, in this context, a major challenge for the photovoltaic sector in order to limit waste production. The law serves as a reference for the installation and recovery of solar panels. What does it impose, in the sector, in terms of recycling? How do you recycle the components of a solar panel? What are

Artificial intelligence and digital technology are valuable assets used in the laboratory by researchers to develop new solar cells and to develop processes that will enable upscaling and industrial transfer. To talk about these subjects, we will give the floor to Jean-Baptiste Puel, researcher at IPVF and Daniele Braga, FLUXIM AG provider of simulation software for research on organic and perovskite solar cells.

Transforming the building envelope into a carbon-free energy producing surface without compromising on aesthetics and safety, this is the promise of BIPV. Building-integrated photovoltaic installations (BIPV) are solar energy production systems or systems that replace the materials traditionally used in the building envelope (cladding, glazing, balconies, etc.), while providing the same function. In this market, shapes, colors and transparency are important criteria for architects

Life is full of mechanisms from which scientists and engineers can draw inspiration to improve energy production, or reinvent it. A major contemporary issue in facing climate change! The presentation will be structured around the following three themes: Capturing light, testimony from Hervé DANIEL, general secretary of the OKWind group company, developer of intelligent photovoltaic trackers. Converting light into energy, how nature inspires scientists, Anne-Laure JOUDRIER, Lecturer,

Flexible, light and efficient photovoltaic panels – the promise of CIGS ☀ CIGS exhibits high conversion efficiencies, both in the laboratory and in production. This high efficiency, coupled with long-term stability, makes it uniquely positioned to play a central role in the global renewable energy sector. CIGS is suitable for the production of lightweight, flexible, semi-transparent, and custom-shaped solar products. Construction materials such as building facade glass and windows, and fully integrated PV roofing materials

Multi-junction III-V solar cells under solar concentration currently hold the records for light-to-electricity conversion rate (>47%). Although they have higher efficiencies than competing technologies, these solar cells are considerably more expensive due to current manufacturing techniques and materials. Their use was therefore reserved until now for concentrated photovoltaics or the space sector. Active research efforts aim to reduce the cost

With the participation of: Brice CRUCHON, CEO of DRACULA TECHNOLOGIES, Luc ENGRAND, EMEA Senior Sales Director of EPEAS, Anne LABOURET, CEO of SOLEMS, Pere ROCA i CABARROCAS, Scientific Director of IPVF. A global communication system, combining sensors, machines, and end users, the Internet of Things is part of our daily lives, and will be increasingly integrated into our professional and personal uses. The power supply of the sensors constituting this system is an essential issue of its

Perovskite solar cells: a webinar to take stock of the state of technology, industrialization and potential markets. With the participation of: Emmanuelle DELEPORTE, University Professor at ENS Paris Saclay, Jean ROUSSET, Head of the perovskite tandem cell research program at IPVFSamy ALMOSNI, Researcher and David FORGACS Director of knowledge management at Saule Technologies (Poland). In 2012, new materials officially entered the world of photovoltaics: hybrid perovskites, with an efficiency that

At the IPVF – Photovoltaic Institute of Ile-de-France, we are convinced that combining science, network and collaboration is essential to build the new photovoltaic sector in Europe. This is why we created IPVF UNITE. IPVF UNITE is the network that brings together and makes the players in our sector work around common interests, to accelerate photovoltaic projects and boost technical progress based on research. The club is aimed at all those who develop, integrate or

Join our monthly calls to decipher the Horizon Europe & European solar industry news, including all the opportunities not to be missed!

On November 19, the IPVF announced the creation of the IPVF UNITE club. For us, it is about bringing together photovoltaic players around innovation projects, and building the sector of tomorrow together – see our press release by clicking here. It is with you that we wanted to design the best program and associated services: we therefore invited you to tell us about your needs. There were a lot of you
