2010年光伏質量簡報會：中心議點是保護光伏投資者的投資安全，該議會預期于2010年8月在倫敦舉行。該議會的核心議題是調查光伏項目的投資狀況，并揭露光伏行業的商業陷阱和問題區域。
“全球光伏商業發展極為迅速”該會議的組織者Solarpraxis評論道。當一個新市場被打開――例如英國――光伏產業的名牌企業和新手便帶著他們的科技和產品一下子蜂擁而至。在長期的FIT光伏補貼政策的刺激下，不論私人投資者還是企業都信心十足的將光伏系統的安裝視為一項可靠的長期投資。
但是他們也會心存疑問，是否他們的這份信心是一個錯誤！一些不走運的投資者很顯然有過這樣的失望經歷，在投資光伏的短短幾年后，他們發現自己選擇的那些糟糕設備和在投資上做的那些愚蠢的決定使得光伏系統問題百出。在信息缺乏和商業環境不透明的情況下，投資者選擇的組件很有可能是質量極差的產品。在這種形式下，投資者的損失幾乎不可避免。而且在光伏系統中，很可能某一個部件發生障礙會導致整個光伏系統的癱瘓。
然而會議組織者宣稱，如果他們能夠明白這些問題，并且知道在哪里可以找到這些問題的答案。那么這些私人投資者，項目開發者，建筑專家，采購經理，安裝者，投資者以及光伏股票持有者便可以確保這些可能遇到的問題其實是可以避免的。
該會議被設計成一個提高光伏質量鑒別知識的會議，目的是避免不正確的投資，避免公司在采購，投資，或者持股光伏產品上造成的數百萬計的財務浪費。
該會議舉行地點為倫敦英國建筑王室學會，時間為2010年8月4日-5日。
UK conference set to tackle subject of PV investment
The Photovoltaics Quality Briefing 2010: Key considerations to safeguard your capital investment, scheduled to be held in London this October, has announced it will be investigating the subject of photovoltaics (PV) investment and how to safeguard businesses against common pitfalls and problem areas.

The global solar business is developing rapidly, say organizers Solarpraxis. As new markets open up ? such as in the UK ? both long-established brands and new businesses are offering their technology and products. Encouraged by incentives such as long-term feed-in tariffs, private individuals and enterprises are confidently making substantial investments in photovoltaic installations.
But, they ask, is their confidence misplaced? “Some investors have certainly had a rude awakening when they have discovered that poor decisions when selecting equipment mean their investments have lost value after just a few years. If lack of information and transparency at the purchasing stage means that poor quality modules are chosen, then heavy losses can result. And the malfunctioning of a single component can lead to the failure of an entire PV system,” they continued.
However, they say that by understanding the issues and knowing what to look out for, private individuals, project developers, building professionals, purchasing managers, installers, investors, financiers and other stakeholders can ensure that potential problems of this kind are avoided.
The event has been designed to increase knowledge of PV quality, prevent malinvestment, safeguard companies against potential losses of millions in purchasing, financing and shareholder investment, and protect them against third-party liability.
The conference is set to be held at the Royal Institute of British Architects, London from 4 to 5 October
