World Conference on Photovoltaic Energy Conversion

The World Conference on Photovoltaic Energy Conversion (WCPEC) is an international scientific conference in the solar energy industry, combining three international PV conferences: the EU PVSEC (European Photovoltaic Solar Energy Conference and Exhibition) on the European side, IEEE PVSC (Photovoltaic Specialists Conference) on the USA side, and PVSEC (International Photovoltaic Science and Engineering Conference) on the Asia-Pacific side. The event covers developments in different aspects of photovoltaics, including science, technology, systems, finance, policies, and markets. The conference programme of the European segment is coordinated by the European Commission's Joint Research Centre (JRC).
