Solar Tester

Solar Tester runs a mobile testing laboratory for quality testing of Solar Modules. Prior to installation a sample of modules is tested. Testing methods are Flash test (Determination of nominal STC power), Electroluminescence imaging and thermal imaging. Solar Tester tests thousands of modules each year and plays an important role in optimizing quality and long term yield in solar PV projects.

Tasks

Large Scale data collection; testing modules prior to installation and regulare follow up to investigate emergence of new defects and evolution of existing defects in modules.
