1. Introduction The Domestic PV Applications Project supports the analytical, applications, and market development activities of the DOE Photovoltaic Subprogram and the development and use of a Systems-Driven Approach (SDA). The objective of the project is to provide a focal point for DOE activities through project development, dissemination of information, increasing public awareness, subcontract management, and technical assistance. Our work is carried out both in-house at NREL and SNL, as well as externally with and/or through a wide range of federal, state, and local groups. 2. Technical Approach During FY 2005, this task addressed some of the critical challenges posed by the U.S. PV Industry Roadmap—namely, raising the awareness of PV in numerous market sectors where significant penetration has not yet been attained, developing information products that will effectively convey the potential of PV (and other solar technologies) to both technical and non-technical audiences, and providing support to organizations, such as the USDA/Rural Utility Service, to develop standardized system specifications and acceptance criteria. We also supported several DOE-requested activities, as well. Institution, and the private sector to make the competition a success. Solar Decathlon 2007. Our efforts on Solar Decathlon were not just directed toward the 2005 event. We also started planning for the third Solar Decathlon in 2007. The short lead time mandated that the request for proposal be sent to universities in FY 2005. National Western Stock Show. In January, we conducted workshops and hosted an exhibit at the National Western Stock Show in Denver, Colorado. According to Stock Show staff, more than 650,000 visitors attended the 16-day event. Telecommunications Study. Our acknowledged expertise in both PV technology and project management led to our receiving $50,000 from the Million Solar Roofs Initiative to study the potential of PV as a power source for advanced telecommunications applications. We worked with Sprint to provide technical advice to their engineers, who are developing PV power sources for wireless communications. The effort will continue into FY 2006. Fossil and Renewable Energy Partnership. Increasing the efficiency and robustness of our nation’s current energy infrastructure has become a high priority since the events of September 11, 2001. Because of our earlier involvement in energy security, we were asked to participate in a special task force convened by the DOE Denver Regional Office. The goal of this task force, called the Fossil and Renewable Energy Partnership, is to pursue a highly beneficial, integrated development of energy resources in the Rocky Mountain region that combines the individual advantages of both fossil and renewable resources. The Partnership consists of representatives from national laboratories, universities, and industry. Our specific interest is to foster applications of PV in the production and distribution of coal, oil, and gas. Rocky Mountain Oilfields Testing Center. We investigated ways to use PV to enhance the production, distribution, and use of traditional fossil fuels, such as oil and natural gas. We collaborated with the DOE Rocky Mountain Oilfields Testing Center (RMOTC) and installed an experimental PV-powered oil-pumping unit in operation at the federally owned Teapot Dome oil field of Wyoming. The effort will continue into FY 2006.

Results and Accomplishments 3.1 National Renewable Energy Laboratory During FY 2005, our highest priority was to support the Solar Decathlon, although we also found time to contribute in other ways (see below). Solar Decathlon 2005. For FY 2005, our major objective was to support Solar Decathlon, which took place on the National Mall in Washington, D.C., during September and October 2005. This intercollegiate competition required students to design, build, and operate the most attractive and energy-efficient solar-powered home. Our project was responsible for installing, operating, and removing the Decathlon village and returning the Mall to its original condition. We worked closely with the National Park Service, Smithsonian 83
