Vestas has a strong brand founded in a proud legacy and powerful company values. But so too has most competitors.
While everybody is trying to outgun competition through products and innovations - bigger, better, faster, stronger - no one is asking the key question: why does it matter and to whom?
Herein lies a golden opportunity for Vestas: to adopt a people-centric branding approach and claim ownership of this particular brand category.
Two steps will bring Vestas closer to this goal.
1) Be extrovert. Focus on what makes a difference to the people of the world. Vestas takes center stage in “Wind. It means the world to us.” But we also want to be involved. Explain why and how wind also ought to mean the world to the rest of us.
2) Bring people into the Vestas univers. The world is made up of people. That’s why people relate to people. And not to machines or products. Make it easier for us to identify with Vestas by introducing people in pictures, in copywriting, and in cases. Address our wants and needs.

Enterprise Excellence is Inclusive Excellence.pdfKaiNexus
Enterprise excellence and inclusive excellence are closely linked, and real-world challenges have shown that both are essential to the success of any organization. To achieve enterprise excellence, organizations must focus on improving their operations and processes while creating an inclusive environment that engages everyone. In this interactive session, the facilitator will highlight commonly established business practices and how they limit our ability to engage everyone every day. More importantly, though, participants will likely gain increased awareness of what we can do differently to maximize enterprise excellence through deliberate inclusion.
What is Enterprise Excellence?
Enterprise Excellence is a holistic approach that's aimed at achieving world-class performance across all aspects of the organization.
What might I learn?
A way to engage all in creating Inclusive Excellence. Lessons from the US military and their parallels to the story of Harry Potter. How belt systems and CI teams can destroy inclusive practices. How leadership language invites people to the party. There are three things leaders can do to engage everyone every day: maximizing psychological safety to create environments where folks learn, contribute, and challenge the status quo.
Who might benefit? Anyone and everyone leading folks from the shop floor to top floor.

Business Valuation Principles for EntrepreneursBen Wann
This insightful presentation is designed to equip entrepreneurs with the essential knowledge and tools needed to accurately value their businesses. Understanding business valuation is crucial for making informed decisions, whether you're seeking investment, planning to sell, or simply want to gauge your company's worth.
3. THE SUN IS RISING
Global demand for
solar energy is surging.
The need for renewable energy is evident. And growing.
As worldwide energy demand increases, the supply of fossil fuels
decreases. Coupled with global warming caused by greenhouse
gas emissions, a growing number of governments around the
world agree the current energy model is simply unsustainable.
One answer to this dilemma is as old as the planet itself.
In just one hour the earth receives more energy from the sun
than the world uses in an entire year. Yet solar energy production
accounts for less than 1% of total global energy demand. But this
is changing rapidly – solar energy demand has grown by at least
30% a year for the last 15 years, largely driven by the installation
of photovoltaic (pv) modules.
The future role of solar energy is undeniable. As the only truly
distributed, fully scalable energy source, it has the greatest potential
to address the global need for additional energy – its generation
and distribution. And with the capability to be installed at the point
of consumption, solar pv can improve reliability and reduce the cost
of electricity.
By 2014, worldwide demand for solar energy is expected
to double.
4.
5. Solar energy –
the dawn of a new opportunity.
The market for renewable energy is evolving. Over the past few years, government sponsored
subsidies encouraged large scale investment and development. As a result, the cost of electricity
from renewable energy is fast approaching parity with traditional sources of electricity. In these
markets, renewable energy is now considered by consumers and businesses as a truly viable
alternative to address their electricity needs.
As advanced renewable energy markets make this transition, the demand for distributed energy
is poised to grow dramatically. And as the only truly distributed form of renewable energy, solar is
uniquely positioned to capitalize on this significant opportunity.
New markets are rapidly emerging.
As access to secure, abundant and affordable energy is essential to economic growth, new markets
for solar pv are rapidly emerging. As standards of living improve in the developing world, demand
for electricity will continue to grow. Many of these regions lack the necessary transmission and
distribution infrastructure to deliver electricity from conventional, centralized sources. At the same
time they enjoy a strong and steady source of solar exposure. The necessity of a distributed form
of energy like solar cannot be denied.
Germany and Italy remain the world’s two largest solar pv markets. And the U.S. is projected to
increase from $10 billion to $78 billion by 2015. With strong growth anticipated in existing markets,
and countries like India and China expected to develop quickly into multiple megawatt opportunities,
solar pv will play an increasingly important role in meeting global energy requirements.

10. Our core business
is solar powered
Founded in 2001 and headquartered in Vancouver, B.C., Day4 Energy is a leading global provider
of solar photovoltaic products and solutions based upon advanced, patented technologies.
Over the past three years, we completed the industrial scale-up of our proprietary manufacturing
process and built a strong track record of superior field performance and quality behind the Day4

of business:
solarMODULES
Research, development and sales of leading solar pv modules.
solarPROJECTS
Consulting, design, operations and project management, and maintenance services for large-scale
solar installations.
solarSERVICES
We are developing a suite of specialized services for owners and operators of solar pv installations.
solarSYSTEMS
Comprehensive franchise system for the manufacture
and distribution of Day4 branded modules.
11. Day4 technology shines brighter.
The proprietary and patented technologies used
in Day4 Energy modules deliver cost efficiency and
superior performance in real world conditions.
Day4 Electrode®
The new standard for manufacturing pv cells, as well as contacting and interconnecting
them during module fabrication.
The core of our technology is the patented Day4 Electrode that interconnects solar electric
cells and collects the power they generate. The Day4 Electrode is a direct replacement
of the conventional solar cell soldering process.
The technology is comprised of a polymer film embedded with a number of copper wires specially
coated with a proprietary, low-temperature melting point alloy. This establishes a low-resistance
electrical contact with the surface of the pv cell creating over 2,100 independent electrical contacts.
This seemingly simple change to the standard process triggers a number of far reaching benefits,
including improved PV cells efficiency and mechanical stability, exceptional pv module power density
and long term field performance where it truly matters – under real field conditions.
The result is more kilowatt hours over the lifetime of the product with virtually no power losses.
It also improves power output and performance in both low light conditions and higher temperature
environments compared to standard solar modules.
Guardian™ Technology
Intelligent shade protection for optimum performance and energy yield.
Shade can reduce the efficiency of solar pv modules. Day4 Energy’s Guardian Technology
enables optimum performance from each solar electric module by maximizing the energy yield
under real world operating conditions such as shade from trees, building obstructions, leaves,
moss, snow or dirt.
Conventional solar modules contain three strings, or zones, of interconnected pv cells. When even
a small portion of one string is partially shaded, the entire zone may no longer collect energy,
significantly reducing the module’s capacity.
The flexible cell layout of the Day4 Electrode allows us to design a module with nine operating
segments that function independently. If one is shaded, the other eight keep working. This means
that with Guardian Technology, Day4 Energy pv modules are three times less sensitive to the effects
of shade and debris than traditional pv modules with the ability to install more modules in a fixed
project area.
12. Advanced Technology. More Electricity.
Why Day4 solar pv panels are superior.
Day4 solar pv modules incorporate significant technological advances, all designed to accomplish
one thing – provide more energy in daily operations and over the life-time of the product. The
proprietary and patented technologies used in Day4 Energy modules provide key advantages
over conventional crystalline pv module technology. Here are just a few.
Advantage 1: Superior collection in low light conditions.
Day4 Energy pv cells are designed to perform at higher efficiencies under low light conditions
compared to conventional pv cells. Low light conditions include early morning and late afternoon,
cloudy weather or shade from other buildings. Our pv cells are produced with less silver than
conventional modules that require cell soldering. The introduction of silver in the pv cell generally
leads to reduced levels of cell efficiency under low light conditions.
Advantage 2: Better connection, reliable collection.
The Day4 Electrode® offers a higher level of redundancy in the interconnection of pv cells, resulting
in more electrical contact points distributed throughout the surface of the cell. When exposed to
thermal stress from the daily heating and cooling of the pv module, this yields greater connection
stability compared to traditional, solder-based processes.
Advantage 3: Industry’s best temperature performance.
In pv modules, higher operating temperatures result in lower energy yields. The Day4 Electrode
wires act as a heat-sink. This “self-cooling” pv cell technology helps deliver one of the best
temperature performances in the industry.
Advantage 4: Engineered and built for maximum durability.
The Day4 Electrode continues to collect power from cells even after they break. Our micro-crack
resistant cell technology means that the energy output from Day4 modules is less sensitive to pv
cell breakage than modules made from traditional cell technology. Also, Day4 Energy modules are
built with watertight back-sheet material that contains aluminum foil. This prevents water vapor
from penetrating the module and provides optimal protection in harsh environments.
Advantage 5: Continues collecting when partially covered.
The flexibility of the Day4 Electrode led to the development of Guardian™ Technology. Day4 modules
are three times less sensitive to the effects of shading, debris, snow or even a single leaf. This allows
for installation in previously unsuitable areas.
