Photovoltaic Systems

In recent years, the growth of non-conventional renewable energies (NCRE) has been vertiginous, both in Chile and in the rest of the world. Among them, photovoltaic solar energy (PV) stands out as a source of clean and renewable energy with enormous potential in Chile, since the country has the highest solar radiation on the planet.

In this context, Fraunhofer Chile (FCR) and its Center for Solar Energy Technologies (CSET) has positioned itself as a leading organization in applied research in various areas, including solar photovoltaic energy. Our specialized team works on the development of innovative solutions and advanced technologies for the industry, with the aim of improving the efficiency and competitiveness of photovoltaic systems. Thanks to the transfer of knowledge and technology from the Fraunhofer Insitute for Solar Energy Systems ISE (Fraunhofer ISE), its parent company in Germany, FCR-CSET integrates the experience and knowledge of the local team in the national market, deepening in various innovative technologies developed in Germany and applying them to the local context.

Fraunhofer ISE's experience in the development of innovative technological concepts translates into an important competitive advantage for FCR-CSET, allowing it to stand out in the national market for its ability to offer customized solutions tailored to the specific needs of each client. Fraunhofer Chile's photovoltaic team is a strategic ally for companies seeking to improve energy efficiency, sustainability and profitability of their processes, through innovative and technologically advanced solutions.

With a focus on knowledge transfer, Fraunhofer Chile works in close collaboration with companies, institutions and government agencies to develop solutions that allow more effective use of solar resources in Chile and other countries in the region. Its photovoltaic team participates in research and development projects in areas such as improving the energy efficiency of photovoltaic systems, integrating renewable energies into electrical grids, and evaluating the quality and performance of photovoltaic components.

Thanks to its extensive experience in the field of solar photovoltaic energy and its solid knowledge in research and development, FCR-CSET's photovoltaic team has established itself as a benchmark in the industry, contributing to the advancement of solar energy and sustainable development in Latin America.
