Poster Presentations

Poster sessions are the backbone of community connection and open discussion at PVRW. We invite poster abstracts on any aspect of photovoltaic reliability, durability, and performance. Most attendees present a poster, and we encourage first-time attendees to submit. We encourage all attendees to be active participants. People who do not present can only register by invitation from a presenter. As a poster presenter, you may invite one non-presenting attendee to register (see details under registration).

How to Submit Your Poster Presentation

Submit your poster title and 200-word abstract below. In most cases, your poster abstract will be accepted within one business day. Once your abstract is accepted, you will receive a link to your Presenter Portal where you pay and complete registration.

What We are Looking For

We accept work across the full breadth of PV reliability! For topics that are currently top-of-mind, please see the Technical Program page. We invite:

  • Technical content related to PV reliability, backed by data.
  • Work in progress, negative results, field observations, and manufacturing designs are all welcome.
  • Advertisements and non-technical or promotional material are not accepted.

If you have not attended PVRW before, browsing past proceedings is a great way to gauge the subjects and level of detail we expect. 
 

Proceedings

To include your presentation in the PVRW proceedings, please upload your presentation files in your Presenter Portal and verify in the pop up question that it is nonproprietary and has not been published or offered for publication elsewhere.
