Technology Development The U.S. Department of Energy, in cooperation with the U.S. photovoltaics industry, seeks to advance PV performance and systems engineering, bolster the U.S. market for PV, and develop technology suitable for integration into residential and commercial building. This work also includes building-integrated photovoltaics (BIPV), a rapidly growing solar application in which PV modules serve the dual purpose of replacing conventional building materials and generating electricity. By offering more than one functionality, BIPV systems will help cross the profit threshold essential to significant growth in distributed, grid-connected electricity markets. DOE recognizes that outreach and analysis activities are necessary for a national R&D program to remain viable in a rapidly changing energy sector. Through the Million Solar Roofs (MSR) Initiative, the Solar Program helps to develop local and regional markets for all solar technologies by working with communities to identify and encourage new applications. The Solar Decathlon— an intercollegiate competition to design, build, and operate attractive, energy-efficient, and totally solar-powered houses—reaches out to the public in a big way. Between the two Decathlons (held in 2002 and 2005), as many as a quarter of a million people have come to learn about the architectural appeal and myriad benefits of solar energy in the built environment. FY 2005 accomplishments within this arena follow. PV Systems Engineering • Contributed to a number of standards, certification, and test protocols within the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, Institute of Energy Conversion, Underwriters Laboratories, California Energy Commission, and Florida Solar Energy Center. PV System Evaluation and Optimization • Implemented the PV-SOL laboratory at Sandia National Laboratories, which has the capability to perform detailed performance and long-term reliability research on 14 separate nominally 3-kW PV systems with multiple array/inverter combinations. Domestic PV Applications • Supported development of program criteria and evaluation of proposals for U.S. Department of Agriculture Farm Bill Solar Program. Building-Integrated Photovoltatics • Continued the implementation of the 2005 Solar Decathlon university competition, releasing the final regulations, solidifying sponsors, and supporting teams. • Convened a workshop on BIPV for big-box retailers, chain hoteliers, and BIPV industry leaders. Million Solar Roofs Initiative • Added five new MSR State and Local Partnerships, bringing the total to 94. In addition, 104 businesses, electricity providers, organizations, and agencies joined Partnerships, bringing the national total of participants to 926. PV Systems Analysis • Expanded work on PV value analysis to include both identifying best practices and information sharing, aimed at helping to inform state-level policymaking. • Provided technical and analytical support to the Western Governors’ Association Solar Energy Task Force. Regional Experiment Stations • Completed 2005 benchmarking of residential, utility-scale, and large commercial PV systems for inclusion in the 2007–2011 DOE Solar Program Multi-Year Program Plan.
