Photovoltaics: Made to Last. The 40 years of TISO PV Plant - Looking Back to see the Future

10:30 - 12:00

Taking inspiration from the publication  "Photovoltaics: made to last. The 40 Years of TISO Photovoltaics," which will be presented on this occasion, the event will feature the participation of some of the authors and a discussion on the past, present and future of photovoltaics. We will move from the early industrialization, policies and reliability standards, to the present situation, and answer with the authors to questions about the challenges for the acceleration of a PV future and the importance of the experience from the past. The strategic topic of bringing back in Europe the PV industry will be at the center of discussion.”

Jointly organised with SUPSI
