ST. PETERSBURG, Fla., Sept. 9, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Revive PV, a leader in photovoltaic (PV) module remanufacturing, is proud to announce its partnership with Kiwa PVEL, the solar industry's leading independent testing lab for reliability and performance. This collaboration aims to validate the performance of Revive PV's innovative remanufacturing process, supporting the long-term viability and sustainability of remanufactured PV modules. The National Renewable Energy Lab (NREL) estimates up to 14% of the installed base of PV modules in The USA may be failing due to degradation of the polymers used in their original construction. This is far larger than the approximately 2% losses seen from other weather-related failures such as hail damage.

"NREL estimates up to 14% of PV modules may fail due to polymer degradation, higher than the 2% losses from weather issues like hail," said Michael Quinn, Chief Commercial Officer at Revive PV. "By validating our remanufactured modules, we provide confidence in their quality and durability."

As the solar industry shifts towards more sustainable solutions, Revive PV's automated remanufacturing process plays a crucial role in extending the life cycle of PV modules. By refurbishing and reconditioning modules that would otherwise be discarded, Revive PV is helping to conserve valuable resources and significantly reduce environmental impact.

Kiwa PVEL's expertise in testing and performance evaluation will be critical in assessing the reliability of Revive PV's remanufacturing techniques. The rigorous testing program will evaluate the electrical, mechanical, and environmental performance of remanufactured modules, comparing them against industry standards to provide stakeholders with reliable and transparent data. "Our partnership with Kiwa PVEL is an important milestone in our mission to advance sustainable practices within the solar industry," said Michael Quinn, Chief Commercial Officer of Revive PV.

"By validating the performance of our remanufactured modules, we are providing the market with confidence in the quality and durability of our products. This will open new pathways for extending the life of PV modules while reducing waste."

The verification process will involve comprehensive testing in Kiwa PVEL's world-class facilities, where the remanufactured modules will undergo various assessments designed to replicate real-world conditions. This testing will provide essential data to project developers, financiers, and other key stakeholders, ensuring that remanufactured modules meet the high standards required for long-term energy generation.

The collaboration between Revive PV and Kiwa PVEL marks a significant step forward in promoting a more circular economy in the solar industry. With the growing demand for sustainable energy solutions, this collaboration supports the development of technologies that can reduce waste and extend the lifecycle of solar infrastructure.
