The European Photovoltaic Solar Energy Conference and Exhibition (EU PVSEC) is an international scientific conference and industry exhibition in the solar energy industry. The event covers developments in different aspects of photovoltaics, including science, technology, systems, finance, policies, and markets.[4] The conference topics include the spectrum of photovoltaics value chain, such as policy considerations and foundational aspects.[5]
EU PVSEC is one of the three hosts of the quadrennial World Conference on Photovoltaic Energy Conversion (WCPEC), along with the IEEE Photovoltaic Specialists Conference (PVSC) on the USA side and International Photovoltaic Science and Engineering Conference (PVSEC) on the Asia-Pacific side.[6]
Conference Topics[edit]
The technical programme of the conference is coordinated by the European Commission's Joint Research Centre (JRC) and is structured on the following 5 topics:[7]
- Silicon Materials and Cells
- Thin Films and New Concepts
- Photovoltaic Modules and BoS Components
- PV Systems Engineering, Integrated/Applied PV
- PV in the Energy Transition
Prizes and Awards[edit]
The list of the prizes and awards that are delivered during the EU PVSEC:
- Becquerel Prize
- Student Awards
- Poster Awards
Becquerel Prize[edit]
The Alexandre Edmond Becquerel Prize is granted by the European Commission as a highlight of the Opening Ceremony of the EU PVSEC,[8] in the purpose of honouring outstanding and major contributions in photovoltaic solar electricity.[9] The prize is named after Edmond Becquerel, French physicist who created the world's first photovoltaic cell. It has been awarded since 1989.[8]
Notable recipients of the prize over the years include Roger Van Overstraeten (1989), Werner H. Bloss (1991), Antonio Luque (1992), Adolf Goetzberger (1997), Joachim Luther (2005), Arvind Victor Shah (2007), Mechtild Rothe (2008), Andres Cuevas (2015), Henry Snaith (2020) among others.[10]
