SWRES field tests the latest U.S. solar technologies, develops new productive-use applications, and provides technology assistance for large-scale PV projects abroad. Together, all three institutions collaborate with partners abroad, providing U.S. companies with useful information ontechnologyperformance,customerneeds,and market conditions. Based on our newly developed strategic plan, we are pursuing four strategies designed to: 1) Contribute international market and system data to the Systems-Driven Approach (SDA) process for improved modeling and analysis 2) Provide market information to DOE to increase the competitive edge for the U.S. solar industry 3) Use international experience as a surrogate for U.S. market development 4) Contribute to improved performance and reliability for U.S. solar products using international systems application samples for testing and monitoring. IEA PVPS Task for which the United States is an operating agent. NREL expanded the testing of PV/wind hybrids, PV applications, and thin-film PV. NREL completed installation of the wind/PV hybrid test facility, which powers village applications such as water purification, lighting, and refrigeration. Collaborations with the Solar Energy Center in India have yielded test results from 21 kW of U.S.- manufactured thin-film PV. 3.2 Sandia National Laboratories and New Mexico State University SNL and the New Mexico State University (NMSU) international group participated in the planning meetings hosted by NREL, wrote sections of text, and conducted informal interviews of the U.S. solar industry for the Solar International Activities: Strategic Plan. SNL and NMSU then incorporated the content of this plan into the DOE Solar Program Multi-Year Program Plan (MYPP) formulation process. In the technical arena, SNL, together with NMSU, conducted fact-finding visits to U.S.-based solar companies to identify cost and reliability issues that the national laboratories could tackle. A key outcome of this research was the need for independent field-performance evaluations of U.S. PV product (particularly thin film) in year round hot and humid climates. This field experience was needed to develop and enable the latest U.S. PV product to be more widely sold in climates that are hotter and more humid than northern Europe. The SNL/NMSU team searched for relevant PV products in such demanding climates and located four CdTe PV systems in Morelos, Mexico. A full field performance evaluation was done, and the results were shared with the appropriate U.S. PV company for its use. The company checked and acknowledged the results, which were also presented at the DOE Annual Program Review in November 2005 (see publication citation below). 4. Planned FY 2006 Activities • Publish and execute Solar International Activities: Strategic Plan. • Continue to support participation in IEA Task 10, “Urban Scale PV Applications,” for which the United States is the operating agent. • Recommend technical and policy options for rapidly emerging PV markets abroad (e.g., China, India, Spain) that affect production of and investment in U.S. PV products. Task Title Program Planning and IEA Support (NREL) Field Performance, Analysis, and Planning (SNL) 3. Results and Accomplishments FY 2005 Budget ($K) 275 192 3.1 National Renewable Energy Laboratory NREL’s International PV Project hosted planning meetings, wrote sections of text, coordinated planning activities, and assembled the Solar International Activities: Strategic Plan to identify new directions and develop a broad strategic framework to be evaluated against Solar Program metrics, thus bringing the greatest value and benefits to the overall program. In response to a specific request from a U.S. solar start-up company that won a second round of venture capital funding, NREL International provided market information on China, as well as contacts for selling U.S. PV product in China. Through two subcontractors, the Institute for Sustainable Power and Segue Energy Consulting LLC, NREL supported participation in IEA Task 9, “Coordination of Renewable Energy Training and Certification Activities,” and IEA Task 10, “Urban Scale PV Applications.” IEA Task 10 is the first Systems Integration and Coordination 160PDF Image | DOE Solar Energy Technologies Program
