Programme 2025

The workshop will cover the latest developments in the field of back contact (BC) solar cells and modules. Cutting edge R&D results, challenges on the way to the industrialization of the BC approach and examples for a successful transfer to mass production will be in the focus of the workshop. Moreover, innovative solutions for integrated PV products based on BC technology will be discussed. The workshop will leave enough room for an exchange of views and thoughts.
