May 25 – 28, 2015 VIII International Conference for Renewable Energy, Energy Saving and Energy Education …"For an energetically sustainable Caribbean" OFFICIAL CALL  Competition between of photovoltaic modules and different cells types.  Benefits of photovoltaics inverters, participation in the grid management.  The structures and metal supports for photovoltaic systems: Design, cost, alternative fixing. The VII International Conference for Renowable Energy, Energy Saving and Energy Education (CIER2011) invites you to participate in the V International Workshop “CUBA FOTVOLTAICA 2015”  Financings of the Photovoltaic Energy (feed in tariff, Net metering, PPA).  Storage of electricity via the photovoltaic energy. Contacts: Dr. Daniel Stolik, [email protected]; [email protected] Dra.Tania Carbonell , [email protected] Ing. José Augusto Medrano [email protected]  Development of Photovoltaic Energy in Latin America, the Caribbean and worldwide.  Optimization of the design and the wiring cost photovoltaic. Organizers:  Installation of large photovoltaic farms.  The risks and costs of photovoltaics against hurricanes and other natural disasters.  Promotion of possible establishment of a Photovoltaic Association in Latinoamerican and the Caribbean between producers, universities, scientists, engineers, researchers, economists and others. V International Workshop “CUBA FOTOVOLTAICA” 2015 May 25 - 28, 2015 Convention Palace, Havana, Cuba    Study Center of renewable energy technologies (CETER), CUJAE Science institute and Materials Technology (IMRE) Havana University. Sponsors:  Cuban Society for the Renewable Energy Sources Promotion and Environmental Respect (CUBASOLAR).  Energy and Mines Ministry (MINEM).  Cuban Higher Education Ministry. Accreditation Cost:  Delegates : 300.00 CUC  Undergraduates: 125 CUC  Accompanying: 80 CUC We are pleased to invite you to participate in the V International Workshop on Photovoltaic Solar Energy (CUBAFOTOVOLTAICA 2015) to be held in the context of the VIII on Renewable Energy International Conference, Energy Saving and Energy Education, to take place in the Conventions Palace in Havana, enclosure founded in 1979, flagship facility in the modality of congresses in Cuba . Deadline dates Abstracts submission: March 1st, 2015 Paper submission: April 1st, 2015 Send your abstracts: [email protected] Objectives. It's impressive the world development of the Photovoltaic Energy already exceeds 150,000 MW installed. Earlier this year, the 33 countries of Latin America and the Caribbean had only about 200 MW installed, but began a takeoff in several countries in the region that is still modest. The main objective of the workshop is contribute in a synergy that could happen with the participation of countries of the region in consequent reduction of the “installation” costs of kWp and kWh in parity with other non-renewable energy sources, considering the high index of solar radiation on which it counts the region.  Cuban Higher Education Ministry.  Energy and Mines Ministry  Center of Management Information and Energy (CUBAENERGÍA).  CUBASOLAR Expositive sample EXPO CIER 2015 We invite at the production companies of photovoltaic industry to show, distribute and promote their products because CIER 2015 offers an space for exhibitions. Workshop topics “CUBAFOTOVOLTAICA 2015”  The increasing levels of photovoltaic penetration in the electricity grid.  Cost of Photovoltaic Energy: KWh vs. kWh with fossil fuel, kWp and installation, the total costs of photovoltaic applications (industrial power generation, agricultural, commercial and residential) photovoltaics systems. Organizations and institutions that support the V International Workshop “CUBA FOTOVOLTAICA 2015” Language of event The event's official languages are Spanish and English.
