European Solar Photovoltaic Industry Alliance website launch 🚀 The European Solar Photovoltaic Industry Alliance aims to build resilience and strategic autonomy for Europe’s solar photovoltaic (PV) value chain. It will identify barriers, opportunities and investment possibilities in the solar PV value chain while also addressing circularity and sustainability and the impact on skills. Who can become a member? The European Solar PV Industry Alliance brings together public and private entities with relevant activities in the

The Alsatian manufacturer Voltec Solar and the Institut Photovoltaïque d’Île-de-France (IPVF), key players in the French solar industry, have joined forces to create a new photovoltaic industry. The “France PV Industrie” project aims to build a gigafactory for solar panels based on a new technology, with a dual objective: to produce more efficient solar panels locally and to create a sustainable industry, based on a fast-growing market and a breakthrough technology. Within the framework of

Meet IPVF at the 8th edition of the World Conference on Photovoltaic Power Conversion in Milan from September 26 to 30 on stand n° B2 with CEA-LITEN and INES. Our experts will chair 4 sessions, make 9 oral presentations and present 19 posters WCPEC-8 is the event where the leading experts from the different PV sectors meet and combines the three most important international solar PV conferences: EU PVSEC : The European Solar PV Conference

Réalisé en partenariat avec le Syndicat des Energies Renouvelables et Enerplan Appui technique : EY Pourquoi développer massivement l’énergie solaire en France ? Le think-tank France Territoire Solaire publie une étude avec l’appui du cabinet EY afin d’apporter des réponses chiffrées et argumentées à cette question, dans la perspective des débats à venir sur la planification de la trajectoire énergétique française. Compétitive, plébiscitée par les Français et rapidement déployable, l’électricité solaire photovoltaïque peut répondre aux

The online event covered four sessions, discussing the challenges of the transition to climate neutrality and a sustainable future with Photovoltaics. These two topics will become the overarching objective of major EU policies and actions. You can rewatch all sessions for free on the ETIP PV conference website and find more detailed information in the official press release.

ETIP PV has developed a Strategic Research and Innovation Agenda (SRIA) which focuses on solar PV technology as a prominent aspect of the EU’s commitments to its clean energy targets and global sustainability goals. PV technology has already proven to be economically and environmentally competitive but must first overcome certain obstacles in the processes of innovation and manufacturing, integration, and circularity. The SRIA analyses five interlocking challenges of PV research and innovation, topics broadly encompassed

We would like to inform you about the “Solar energy and society” conference on 21 April, organised at the Collège de France by Daniel Lincot, former Scientific Director of the IPVF. Access conference page With the advent of an industrial society based on abundant energy from fossil resources, the relationship between society and solar energy has changed profoundly. From being an indispensable, unavoidable resource, via wind and water power or biomass from photosynthesis, it has

The Choiseul Institute is unveiling the 2022 edition of its #Choiseul100, a national ranking that identifies the 200 most promising business leaders under the age of 40 of their generation.

Intégrer le photovoltaïque au bâtiment, parole aux acteurs.   Transformer l’enveloppe du bâtiment en surface productrice d’énergie décarbonée sans compromis sur l’esthétique et la sécurité, telle est la promesse du BIPV. Les installations photovoltaïques intégrées aux bâtiments (BIPV) sont des systèmes ou des systèmes de production d’énergie solaire qui remplacent les matériaux utilisés traditionnellement dans l’enveloppe du bâtiment (bardage, vitrage, balcons…), tout en assurant la même fonction. En construction neuve ou réhabilitation d’un bâtiment existant,
