Recently, Q CELLS was the first solar module manufacturer in the industry to successfully complete and pass a stringent new module testing certification program from TÜV Rheinland. The Quality Controlled PV (QCPV) testing standard was developed to enforce stricter criteria on monitoring, testing, and recognizing solar module quality. It is the only program on the market to continuously monitor product quality and durability in mass production. For Q CELLS, QCPV is now the company’s official certification standard, beginning with its latest range of Q.PEAK DUO-G9 series modules.  /*** Adve...

2020 ended with Q CELLS becoming the first module manufacturer certified under the new Quality Controlled PV Program from TÜV Rheinland. This program promises to raise the bar in module quality to new levels, aiming to usher in a new baseline of manufacturing best practice that leads to greater solar system efficiency and longevity. In 2021, Q CELLS turns its sights to the development of next-generation solar technologies, with our global R&D headquarters in Germany diligent in its development of both n-type cell and perovskite tandem cell technology. Q CELLS CEO, Charles (Hee Cheul) Kim, ...

Quality Time for Solar PV: Part II By Q CELLS In Part I of Q CELLS’ deep dive into solar component quality, we explained both the need for, and details of, the new Quality Controlled PV program from TÜV Rheinland. Q CELLS expects this program to become a standard bearer for the PV industry, defining and reshaping best-practice in every component of the module production process. Upholding high standards in the monitoring of material sourcing, in ensuring the deliverance of top-quality manufacturing processes, and in creating optimal testing conditions, has never been more vital. Solar’s...

Quality time for solar PV: Part I By Q CELLS Email Solar systems, we’re often told, are a low maintenance source of generating electricity. ‘Stick it on your roof or in your field and forget about it’ is a commonly heard phrase in the industry. Granted, compared to wind and CSP installations – both of which are an engineer’s dream – photovoltaics is relatively ‘plug-and-play’ in its simplicity. Yet things can and do go wrong with PV, which is to be largely expected for such a nascent industry. According to the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) of t...

In the first of a two-part feature, Q CELLS explains how it is forging a quality-focused future for photovoltaics, together with the vital input of a handful of respected industry experts.
