The overall objectives of the International Energy Agency Task 13 are to:

• Gather the most up-to-date information from each member country on a variety of technical issues related to PV performance and reliability. This will include summaries of different practices from each country, experiences with a variety of PV technologies and system designs.
• Gather measured data from PV systems from around the world. This data will be used to test and compare data analysis methods for PV degradation, operation & monitoring (O&M), performance and yield estimation, etc.
• Communicate to our stakeholders in a number of impactful ways including reports, workshops, webinars, and web content.
