Agenda

Returning to Napa for the fourth year of PV ModuleTech USA, never has there been such uncertainty about buying PV modules in the U.S. and what the landscape might look like 12 months out. During David’s introduction, you will hear why we have selected the session topics, some of the key speakers making their ‘debut’ this year, and what we hope to learn by the time the conference closes at the end of Day Two.

The opening session at PV ModuleTech USA has always set the tone for the quality and content of the contributions over the two days. As has become customary at PV ModuleTech USA, we will open proceedings with unique insights into the global PV manufacturing eco-system, what changes have occurred over the past 12 months and what to expect next year, in particular concerning PV module supply and procurement in the U.S., followed by some of the key people and companies at the heart of PV module supply to the U.S. today.

The first session of the conference featuring key legal experts tracking the evolving policy landscape in the U.S. today, specific to module supplier purchasing and due diligence considerations.

This session takes a close look at how module suppliers are undergoing qualification testing in the U.S. and leading performers in the market today.

The opening session in the afternoon looks at quality and reliability factors in manufacturing modules in the U.S. for utility-scale deployment, using domestic materials supply.

Following on from the morning session, policy with regards to module purchasing will be in focus, including a chance for audience questions to be answered live on stage.

Changes are taking place across Southeast Asia, India, the MENA region and domestically in the U.S. to set up supply-channel options for module purchasing in the U.S. in coming years. This session will hear from some of the key module suppliers that are set to be leading module suppliers to the U.S. market in coming years and how supply chains have been set up to mitigate buying risks, while retaining product quality and reliability as key features.

Join other conference attendees for an evening of wine tasting in the evening following the first day of the conference. The evening offers a relaxed environment for delegates to network and unwind, enjoying scenic views and locally produced wines!
