4.3.2 Technology and Component Goals and Objectives The following goals and objectives are planned over the 5-year time period, based on the long-term goal of solar water heating, space heating, and lighting becoming competitive with electric or gas alternatives within a 10-year horizon. As with all solar-driven technologies, performance depends on solar incidence and is location-dependent; cost goals are stated for an average climate within the target market. Goals • Develop low-cost passive solar water heaters for warm climates that will be cost-competitive with conventional technologies, with levelized energy cost (LEC) of 4-6¢/kWh. This represents a 25%– 50% reduction. • Develop low-cost active solar systems for solar water heating in cold climates and for combined building heating and cooling that have LEC of 6¢/kWh. This represents a 50%–-70% cost reduction, depending on application. • Develop a low-cost hybrid solar lighting system that has LEC of 12¢/kWh, a reduction of 70% from the current cost estimate of the first system. Objectives Water and Space Heating • During 2003, obtain SRCC (Solar Rating and Certification Corporation) certification and rating for the RITH system, and verify its installed cost of $1,500/unit. Install full-scale prototypes of polymer ICS systems. • By 2004, obtain SRCC certification and ratings for polymer ICS Systems and design manufacturing processes for 10,000 systems/year. • By 2005, develop and evaluate active water-heating concepts for cold climates and for combined solar heating and cooling systems; develop RITH systems that combine electric water heating and rooftop solar hot water storage in a single unit. • By 2007, field-test active cold-climate solar water heater prototypes and combined solar heating and cooling system prototypes, and assist industry in implementing new concepts in integrated roof/hot water systems. • By 2009, complete code approval of active cold-climate solar water heaters and combined solar heating and cooling systems. • By 2012, solar water heaters become standard in many building developments, integrated roof/hot water/heating/cooling systems are in widespread use, and solar energy for process heat is expanding. • In all years, provide technical assistance to industry to reduce manufacturing and installation costs, increase throughput, improve quality, and increase material lifetime. Hybrid Solar Lighting • During 2003, develop improved “alpha” HSL system designs. • By 2005, develop “beta” HSL. • By 2007, field-test HSL system at several commercial sites. 4.3.3 Key Technical Challenges The key technical challenges for solar heating and hybrid lighting systems are to reduce installed system cost and to ensure that product reliability is at the level necessary for wide-scale adoption by builders.
