Since our testing programs began over a decade ago, industry stakeholders have been seeking PVEL’s guidance on module procurement. PVEL and Exawatt have collaborated on a unique approach to forecasting, developing a bottom-up cost model based on the various components in a PV module.
View the 9th edition of our PV Module Reliability Scorecard online to see which manufacturers and products earned Top Performer status in PVEL's testing.
The Battery Technology and Cost Forecast (BTAC) is a biannual report for which PVEL and Exawatt have jointly developed a methodology that leverages bottom-up cost analysis, based on data gathered from more than 180 publicly traded companies throughout the lithium-ion cell supply chain, combined with a manufacturing model that contains over 100 input variables. Additionally, manufacturer top-down forecasts and industry trends across the past 5 years are incorporated into the model.
