In order to ensure compliance with MRSEC’s expectations regarding quality, a unique and effective quality control system for construction, including the installation of solar panels, has been developed and is described below. The success of the quality system is based on the commitment and participation of all members of the organization.
The expected output was calculated using an accepted PV model, such as the NREL System Advisor Model (SAM), or a regression model, therefore, the accuracy and uncertainty of the PI value is dependent on the accuracy and uncertainty of the model.
Additional standards and guidelines have later been published such as the ISO 21930 (Environmental Product Declaration on Construction Products”, International Organization for Standardization (ISO) 2017), and the Product Environmental Footprint Category Rules (PEFCR) for PV electricity (TS PEF Pilot PV 2018).
The IEA Photovoltaic Power Systems Programme (IEA PVPS) is one of the TCP’s within the IEA and was established in 1993. The mission of the programme is to “enhance the international collaborative efforts which facilitate the role of photovoltaic solar energy as a cornerstone in the transition to sustainable energy systems.”
Timely identification and correction of quality defects, as well as an adequate implementation of the quality control program, are vital to ensure the optimal long-term performance of solar plants, as well as the expected return on investment.
Water use occurs during all life cycle stages of PV electricity. Water is used in industrial processes of the supply chains of PV panels, for cleaning purposes during the operation of PV systems and in the end of life stage in PV panel recycling.
