PV PACT Center

The PACT center focuses on developing a fair and level playing field for emerging PV industry by:

  • Developing, testing and validating characterization protocols that can quantify module performance and accurately measure power loss and degradation.
  • Developing accelerated testing protocols that can predict and identify early failures (5-10 years) and degradation rates.
  • Monitoring outdoor performance from fielded prototype mini-modules (< 1m2) and developing energy yield models that can predict performance in different climates.
