Conference Outline:
Fires on houses with solar systems, theft of PV modules and low-quality installations – reports about such issues are increasingly frequent in the media. While DEL fire hazards in particular have the potential to become a show stopper for the rapid dissemination of solar power, there are technical solutions for this and the other challenges of running a system safely. PHOTON´s 1^st PV SAFETY Conference will take a look at companies and technologies that make PV system operation safer for reliable power generation using the latest inverter technology and devices for theft protection as well as products to switch off solar modules in the event of a fire.

This conference will provide:

• An overview of the challenges of safe and reliable PV power generation
• Presentations from companies/scientists on technical solutions for safe and reliable PV power generation
• Case studies
• A panel discussion

PHOTON‘s 1^st PV SAFETY Conference is a forum for decision makers in the PV industry – from module makers, producers of inverters and power optimizers, installers and system operators, as well as electric utilities and government agencies.
