The Module Evolution. I have never been a module expert but have recently gone down a bit of a rabbit hole to understand what it takes to get our supply chain built up but also ensure its longevity. Seems like there’s some noise around the Topcon technologies and possible patent cases while there’s certainly some buzz around the heterojunction (HJT) technology. One of my colleagues chairs one of those factories and it’s quite impressive how this is coming along and how much further solar tech could go. My first SolarWorld ~200W quote was for $4/watt back in the day, wouldn’t have thought we’d be here today. What do I need to learn about modules?

The Matchmaking, Part 2. Impressive how many folks reached out yesterday and it feels like there are more mega projects looking for capital than I’ve seen in a long time. I’m curious as to what it takes to connect folks given that so many of you in the IPP world are always complaining that there aren’t enough projects and delays on delays. We’ll do our best to move some relationships forward and align. If you’re a buyer of projects, reach out.
