Abstract
Supply chain development is crucial for solar photovoltaic (PV) capacity growth; however, most of its crucial value chain segments are concentrated in specific geographies such as China, Europe and the United States. Hence, from a sustainability perspective, it is critical that these supply chains become more diversified and resilient. Emerging markets and developing economies (such as India and Southeast Asian countries) are beginning to increase their engagement in solar PV supply chain activities.

One way in which countries can enhance their solar PV supply chain resiliency, and facilitate greater market access, is through participation and conformance to the international quality infrastructure ecosystem for this technology. This includes environmental, social and governance (ESG) requirements for solar PV that aim to provide more robust validation on the sustainability of this technology.

This IRENA report takes stock of the key quality infrastructure (technical) and ESG services that should be considered by solar PV stakeholders to bolster supply chain activities, as well as make them more inclusive.
