Solar Asia 2018

January 4, 2018 - January 6, 2018

Solar 2018

Research on solar energy materials and solar cells is a fast growing interdisciplinary area of science and technology today. During the past many years, physicists, chemists, material scientists, engineers and industry personnel have focused their attention to develop novel materials for highly efficient and low cost solar cells and PV devices. There are also significant developments in solar photovoltaic and solar thermal applications. Scientists and technologists in Asian countries continue to make notable contributions to these developments.

The SOLAR ASIA – 2018 conference will provide a forum for researchers from Asia and other countries to present their research, to get exposed to latest developments in solar cell technologies and to network with other research scientists. This is also an excellent opportunity for the industry to showcase latest commercially available research equipment, solar energy products and related technologies.
