Swiss Contribution

Swiss experience in international cooperation and Entec’s “know-how” from a related field (small hydropower) represent important contributions; particularly for the technology transfer to other technologies.

Description

This project is based on extensive, worldwide experience obtained from photovoltaic power plants in developing countries. The project aims for an increase in successful and sustainable PV plants destined for a variety of uses. The international expert group has a wide range of project experience in this field and concentrates their work on the non-technical aspects of PV power plant use. The expert group maintains ongoing contact with a number of international development organizations through a well-established international project network.
