About Us
SUPSI PVLab is the only Swiss laboratory accredited for testing PV modules according to international and national standards. Further to services, we have strong research activities with focus on precise characterisation, accelerated testing and outdoor monitoring of innovative technologies, in order to increase the quality of PV products and systems on the market.
What we Do
The activities of the SUPSI PVLab range from indoor to outdoor testing, passing throgh data analysis and on site verification. The precise characterisation of all the relevant parameters of a PV module is accomplished through instrumentation internally adapted to the highest quality standards. This is possible thanks to the research activities with international and national partners.
Virtual Tours
Enjoy a virtual tour of the PVLab in the brand new Campus in Mendrisio. The laboratory benefits of more than 400 m² indoor, dedicated to the test activities on standard and new technologies. A best in class darkroom, hail testing up to 70mm, mechanical load testing up to 14000 Pa, improved light soak and UV bench, two up-to-date climate chambers, are only some of the facilities available in our new space.
White Paper
The dissemination of the results of research activities is an important task of the SUPSI PVLab. Explore the different topics related to the quality of PV modules, advanced characterisation of new technologies, outdoor testing, long term reliability and accelerated testing. White papers, scientific articles, reports, posters and presentations are available for download.
