Photovoltaics Europe

Solar Requirements & Incentives, Market Analysis, Technical Progress & Routes to Market

New topics, new speakers and more world exclusives

Photovoltaics Europe 2012 will be shedding light on the latest trends from major innovators in the solar cell sector. The conference will be covering all the developments in thin film, organic and printed photovoltaics, bringing you the latest innovations on established photovoltaics technologies as well as emerging ones.

The growth of the Photovoltaics sectors in 2011 has been impeded by the global economic slowdown, which has led to an unexpected reshuffle in the industry. The large drop in silicon pricing is creating a very competitive field in which efficiency, reliability and cost are at the forefront. Find out where efforts are focused in each of the technology platforms covered; discover competitive advantages as well as requirements of different industries, ranging from small electronic devices to large scale solar implementations.

What to Expect at Printed Electronics Europe 2012

This event, the Europe's largest on the topic and growing rapidly every year, is your information and networking hub on the topic, with an international trade show of more than 100 exhibitors. It is the meeting place for users, suppliers, academics and investors.
