Ranking & Metrics
Impact Score is a novel metric devised to rank conferences based on the number of contributing the best scientists in addition to the h-index estimated from the scientific papers published by the best scientists. See more details on our methodology page.

Conference Call for Papers
On behalf of the Technical Program Committee, I am honored to invite you to submit an abstract on your latest achievements in photovoltaic (PV) research, development, applications, and impact to the 48th IEEE Photovoltaic Specialists Conference (PVSC-48). The PVSC-48 endeavors to cover the full spectrum of PV knowledge and innovation, from the basic science and engineering of materials, devices, and systems, to the examination of policy and markets and critical issues of social impact. PVSC aims to be a highly interactive and inclusive venue for everyone, from seasoned PV experts to entry-level professionals to students alike. The conference provides a unique opportunity to meet, share, and discuss PV-related developments in a timely and influential forum. Please contribute to the PVSC's tradition as the premier international conference on PV science and technology and help usher in a solar-powered world.
PVSC-48 will bring back the traditional 12 Technical Areas, along with a slate of compelling Keynote and Plenary Speakers. Delivering our Keynote address will be Professor Yi Cui from Stanford University, who will be talking about "Metal-H2 Batteries for Large Scale Stationary Energy Storage,” while our Plenary Speakers thus far include Laura Miranda (Oxford PV), Joe Berry (NREL), Anna Fontcuberta i Morral (EPFL), Marika Edoff (Uppsala University), and Xiaoting Wang (Bloomberg New Energy Finance). The conference will also include several exciting cross-cutting themes and joint areas, including “Advanced Resource Management for 100% Renewable Electricity” and “Hybrid Tandem/Multijunction Solar Cells,” with additional topically relevant special and cross-cutting sessions in the works. We also place a particular focus on issues of equity and social justice within the PV field and in its use and impact around the world. When submitting an abstract in response to these and similar topics please either select the specific Joint Area that is noted within the Area Descriptions (if applicable), or select the Technical Area that best fits the nature of the work described in your abstract.
