PV Laboratory Design Implementation and Accreditation

Besides training and education, setting up testing capability for PV Solar components is key. It is essential to determine the quality and reliability of products coming into the country.
Analyzing the quality of PV modules can be done with a small number of key types of testing equipment.
Solar Solutions Channel can develop a roadmap to start with a minimum essential set of testing equipment to a fully capable PV Module testing laboratory complying with standards such as IEC 61215 and IEC 61730.
The company, in partnership with expert organizations, can provide training and assist in setting up a PV lab organization leading to an internationally recognized accreditation such as ILAC-MRA.
The company can assist the PV laboratory in developing dedicated protocols for addressing local deviations and conditions.

PV Technology Transfer Start Up Service

In working with partners and through our consulting services and PV solar solutions activities we have developed and maintain significant contacts into the global PV solar industry and supplier base. For new companies or existing companies branching into the PV solar business, we are offering the following services:
- Finding the right supplier base for their needs
- Assisting through the product qualification phase
- Setting up supply contracts for production ramp and production phase
- Contract management
- For suppliers we can act as their Manufacturer’s Representative
- Consulting

If you are planning to set up a manufacturing line for PV wafer, cells, modules or thin film modules, operational excellence will make the difference as to whether you are producing successfully and profitable or not. It starts with selecting the right manufacturing equipment for the task and continues with negotiating optimized equipment specifications and support conditions with the vendors to ensure best conditions for the line. Further, optimized integration over all equipment suppliers is key. Finally to set up a cost-optimized, cross-trained maintenance structure with fast access to consumable and non-consumable spare parts, completes the scenario.

If you are running a semiconductor or PV solar manufacturing line and want to improve output and performance, we can help you to analyze your current structure and business processes for better efficiency, performance improvement and cost reduction

PV Power Plants

PV power plant designs including EPC (Engineering Procurement and Construction) management
Small off grid individual PV power stations for single houses, with optional inclusion of accessories, lighting…
The aim for small stations is to provide un-interrupted electricity. The system should include electricity storage for a limited number of days with no power generation (cloudy, rainy days)
Off grid PV power stations of larger size with optimized share of localization
On grid PV power stations of larger size with optimized share of localization
PV power station designs will be conducted in partnership with experienced companies having implemented multiple alike projects
Building local expertise through these projects is key, including construction, material sourcing, operation and maintenance
