PV Project Bankability: Exploring Quality and Technical Risk
This pv magazine Week Europe conversation focuses on the technical and quality elements of project bankability. How can project developers ensure technical bankability for their PV project through effective procurement? Where do the key technical risks to bankability occur on PV projects, and what steps are manufacturers and suppliers taking to mitigate these risks? Expert speakers provide practical insights on the capex decisions that shape bankability and long-run performance.
The webinar explores the tangible benefits technology offers solar asset owners looking to streamline their O&M processes — including web-based continuous monitoring, AI integration, predictive maintenance, and automation. We also examine technology as a potential threat, delving into the urgent topic of cybersecurity for solar asset owners and how they can use technology to safeguard their business from external risks. The panel of experts discusses best practices for integrating technology, as well as potential challenges related to regulation, security, data quality, and system failures.
2:11: Jörg Althaus, Intertek CEA’s Director of Engineering Services & Quality Assurance, provides insights into the most common quality issues impacting PV plants today and outlines strategies to mitigate these risks.
