Over 30 years of PV research excellence, a meticulous characterisation of the measurement infrastructure and comprehensive uncertainty analyses culminated in CREST, allows us to offer measurement capabilities to assist you in measuring cells, modules, and pyranometers.

[### I-V curve measurements

Current-voltage measurements at Standard Test Conditions (STC) according to IEC60904-1.](https://www.lboro.ac.uk/research/crest/working-with-us/lab/i-v-curve/)

[### Spectral responsivity measurements

PV device response to quasi-monochromatic light is measured using an over-illuminating system.](https://www.lboro.ac.uk/research/crest/working-with-us/lab/spectral/)

[### Irradiance Sensor Calibration

Reference cell and pyranometer calibration.](https://www.lboro.ac.uk/research/crest/working-with-us/lab/irradiance/)

[### Further measurements

We provide a wide range of indoor and outdoor measurements to support energy yield predictions, energy rating of modules, reliability and durability investigations, support for warranty cases, etc.](https://www.lboro.ac.uk/research/crest/working-with-us/lab/more/)
