Workshop: PV Energy
Dienstag/Tuesday, 22.10.2013, EMPA, Dübendorf
Environmental and Economical Impact of PV Energy Production
PV deployment can look back on a few very successful years and it has its share of electricity production has become sizable in some countries. By growing out of a niche its ecological and economical impact has become also more challenging.
In this workshop we will present and discuss various point of views by international experts and the DURSOL project (supported by Swusselectric Research swisselectric research and the Competence Center Energy and Mobility CCEM)
