Speaker Presentations 2026

Thank you for joining us at PV ModuleTech USA in Napa!

The presentations below are only intended for delegates that attended this conference in June 2026, please do not share them or link to this page. Please bookmark this page if you need to return. Photo Gallery – Please use hashtag #PVModuleTech when sharing on social media.

For in-depth risk analysis of global module suppliers we invite you to book a free demo of our PV ModuleTech Bankability Ratings Quarterly report, the definitive guide to understanding, ranking and benchmarking the bankability status of leading global PV module suppliers to utility-scale sites.

The methodology analyses companies across Financial Health metrics, Manufacturing Operations, Shipment Data and Ownership Structure to expose solvency, FEOC, AD/CVD, Section 232 and UFLPA risks attached to suppliers before you engage them.

We also produce comparable bankability reports for BESS and Inverter suppliers to ensure your supplier shortlists are as de-risked as possible.
