  • Everyone in solar wants Magnelis®

ArcelorMittal at 35th EU PVSEC

24-28 September 2018, SQUARE Meeting Centre, Brussels

Some of the main challenges of solar installations are to ensure perfect durability with cost-effective structural & protection solutions, whilst minimizing installation and maintenance costs. In this area, mounting structures using high performing steels and advanced coatings such as Magnelis® lead to lighter and cost competitive solutions, with excellent protection against corrosion over the life cycle.


At the Brussels SQUARE Meeting Centre, visitors had the opportunity to discover Magnelis®, a best-in-class metallic coating for steel structures of solar installations (ground mounted, fix tilt or trackers, or roof top) as it combines:

  • Exceptional corrosion resistance, even on cut edges
  • Excellent corrosion protection in soil
  • Excellent abrasion resistance
  • Cost effectiveness

On the stand visitors were welcomed by ArcelorMittal representatives from the European sales steering department, sales operations and Research and Development who held a "poster session" on Wednesday 26 afternoon.

Overall this participation allowed several interesting contacts for R&D topics but not only, it was a successful first participation.

About EU PVSEC

EU PVSEC is the leading international conference in the photovoltaics sector. For over 30 years, it has been serving as the annual meeting point for PV experts from research, development and industry.
The quality of the EU PVSEC’s programme is unrivalled, which is ensured every year by the Scientific Committee comprising of 204 international photovoltaics experts. In 2018, over 1,000 conference presentations were featured in the scientific programme and parallel events.
At the 35th EU PVSEC from 24-28 September, more than 2,000 international solar experts from over 80 countries gathered to present the latest research in solar technology. Leaders from politics and industry in Europe discussed the necessary steps to reach the recently agreed 32% EU renewable energy target by 2030. The consensus: PV will be of strategic importance for the EU economy, providing energy independence, industrial jobs and economic growth. Europe is leading in technological development, state-of-the-art manufacturing technology, sustainability of production and quality, as well as efficiency of PV products.
