Agenda
This year’s agenda brings you the best of the talks from the postponed BifiPV Hangzhou and BifiPV San Francisco Area. The talks selected represent actualized, relevant research in the fast-paced world of bifacial PV discoveries. Join us on this free event to get updated on field validation, new market trends, and knowledge developed in this past year.
The event will take place on July 27 and 28th (original dates of BifiPV San Francisco Area). Join us to attend the lectures, send your questions online and for the live discussions after each session. Recording of the talks will be available afterwards on the proceedings of this website.
