Ross Dix-Peek | Technical Expert – Africa
Becquerel Institute

Ross Dix-Peek is a physicist working on the real-world performance of solar photovoltaic (PV) modules, with a focus on how technology behaves outside controlled laboratory conditions. Through his work with the Becquerel Institute, he contributes to projects that provide insight into how PV modules perform in the field, using measured data to understand degradation mechanisms, failure modes, and performance variability across different operating environments. Ross brings more than a decade of experience in the PV sector, spanning research, consulting, and executive roles. He has worked across both laboratory and on-site environments, contributing to a deeper understanding of how PV systems perform over time under real-world conditions. He has an in-depth understanding of PV module standards and how they translate into real-world performance and longevity. In parallel, he is actively engaged in broader questions related to the solar supply chain, including manufacturing, localisation, and the development of more resilient and transparent value chains.
