Room
Intersolar Innovation & Application Stage (B3.101)

On all three exhibition days, Intersolar Innovation & Application Stage offer visitors a comprehensive program, showcasing various aspects of the renewable energy sector by supporters, sponsors and exhibitors.

02:00 pm - 02:45 pmHow to calculate the viability of hybrid systems

With hybrid systems we are opening a new era in the solar energy segment. In countries like Germany, this technology has already become standard.
The equipment is available and is being widely offered. However, there are few answers about the economic viability of these systems, even though the investment in batteries is still considerable.
Many calculations start from an estimated percentage of simultaneity, which has proven to be unreliable. Therefore, we will present a method for sizing optimized storage, based on a detailed simulation.
The objective is to achieve the best financial result.

Speaker: Hans Rauschmayer, managing director of Solarize Treinamentos Profissionais

03:00 pm - 03:45 pmCertifications and Rankings in the Photovoltaic Industry: Why They Matter

With a keen focus on BNEF Tier 1, PVTech and PVEL reports, EUPD Research top brands, and other key indicators, the talk aims to clarify how these systems work and underscore their significance. From enhancing credibility and quality assurance to guiding investment decisions and driving innovation, the discussion highlights why staying informed about these certifications and rankings is crucial for players across the renewable energy spectrum.
