KUKA Cable highlights material innovation as the next frontier of solar cable reliability – pv magazine Global

KUKA Cable recently showcased its solar cable solutions at The smarter E Europe 2026 in Munich, where the company shared its perspective on the changing demands of the renewable energy sector.
Speaking at the event, COO Jackie Wang said that the rapid growth of solar power is driving higher system voltages, longer project lifetimes and more complex operating environments. These changes mean that solar cables must do more than simply meet existing industry standards.
According to Wang, issues such as overheating, insulation ageing and DC-side failures continue to show why material quality is becoming increasingly important.
Tony Si, Co-Founder of KUKA Cable, added that European customers are placing greater emphasis on evidence-based quality, durability and long-term reliability. Requirements such as waterproof performance, anti-rodent protection and resistance to harsh outdoor environments are becoming increasingly important across the market.
To meet these evolving demands, Si explained that KUKA Cable has invested in its own laboratory and established SIF, the company’s quality management framework covering material selection, testing, manufacturing, and verification. Through SIF, KUKA Cable aims to make long-term reliability more measurable, traceable and verifiable.
