We are happy to announce the 12th edition of the Metallization and Interconnection Workshop for Crystalline Solar Cells (MIW) will take place on October 23 & 24, with a welcome reception on the evening before, in Chambéry, France. Close to the laboratories of CEA/INES we have rented a spacious convention center in Le Bourget-du-Lac, near the shores of the beautiful lake du Bourget.

Thanks to the great committment of our Sponsors, supporting this event, we will be able to offer participation at this workshop again for reasonable fee, including full catering during the event and a joint dinner. For those how cannot or do not want to travel online participation will again be possible.

The Call for Abstracts is now open. We want to encourage researchers from Academia and Industry hand-in updates about their latest findings on a number of relevant Topics for the Metallisation and Interconnection of Solar Cells before the deadline on May 24th. Authors with an approved Abstract further will have the possibility to submit a paper to our Workshop proceedings, published in SOLMAT (Solar Energy Materials & Solar Cells).
