Reliable Solar PV Structure Design and Innovation

We invite you to join us and attend this webinar entitled “Reliable Solar PV Structure Design and Innovation” which will discuss the effect of the new large format modules on the current PV structure design, improvements, new materials, lessons learned from cases in the Middle East, and many important topics. This webinar is organized by MESIA, and participated by many leading companies in PV mounting structures.

Topics:

1. Design Changes on structures currently happening (Preventing damages) due to new large format modules.
2. Technology Improvements in the Structural Domain – Innovations, new Materials, etc. (Addressing corrosion)
3. Benefits of Standardizing design testing to ensure uniform quality across manufacturers.
4. Special Middle East requirements for PV structures: Lessons Learned.
