DOE Special Requests. We supported special requests from DOE. We installed a PV-powered water pump and a small wind turbine in the lobby of the Forrestal Building as part of an NREL- produced EERE exhibit. Boy Scout Jamboree. We worked with EERE and Fossil Energy to provide staffing and exhibits for the 2005 Boy Scout Jamboree held in July 2005 at Fort A.P. Hill, near Fredericksburg, Virginia. DOE is responsible for teaching the Energy Merit Badge and had requested our assistance to cover renewable energy. We joined a team of DOE volunteers from various DOE program offices who taught the young people from all over the country about various aspects of energy. More than 40,000 boys and girls(ages 14 to 21), some 30,000 adults, and more than 100,000 visitors attended this event. Channel 7 Meteorological Tower and Radar. The TV weatherman at Denver’s Channel 7, Mike Nelson, requested NREL’s help to evaluate the possibility of powering a new weather radar and meteorological tower using PV. We installed a 2- kW PV array to power Channel 7’s weather radar in a rural location near Watkins, Colorado, a few miles east of Denver International Airport. The new meteorological tower will be located on the roof of Channel 7 headquarters in downtown Denver. Solar Secure Schools. Under contract to NREL, En-Strat Associates developed strategies and design specifications for low-cost, prepackaged PV systems for schools to enable the schools to be used as emergency community centers. The report will be published in FY 2006. 3.2 Sandia National Laboratories SNL has active partnerships with several state and federal agencies, including the USDA Forest Service, National Park Service, Bureau of Land Management, and the USDA, as well as with several tribal utilities and other tribal organizations. These partnerships have focused on leveraging SNL technical assistance with large procurement activities to expand the use of PV in viable applications. Key to these partnerships is the use of PV systems with reliable components, approved designs, and quality installations using SNL’s expertise and support. Through these partnerships and related field activities, valuable insight is gained regarding the technical functioning of installed systems, aspects of installed and lifetime costs, and feedback for Photovoltaic R&D Technology Development benchmarking and advanced systems engineering activities. Activities in FY 2005 focused on assisting the USDA Rural Utility Service (RUS) in the development of a pre-approved packaged systems and standardized acceptance criteria and systems specifications appropriate for bulk system procurements and/or financing, and technical assistance to priority Native American renewable energy programs. This information is considered important for RUS to insure that its loans are for acceptable technology and that they will in fact be repaid. SNL addressed the complementary needs of both DOE and USDA RUS with the life-cycle cost information obtained in this work. 4. Planned FY 2006 Activities 4.1 Training, Education, and Technical Assistance (NREL) During FY 2006, our highest priority will be to plan the logistics and support proposal evaluation for Solar Decathlon 2007. Other activities will address 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 and developing information products that will effectively convey the potential of PV (and other solar technologies) to both technical and non-technical audiences. We will conduct three consumer workshops in January 2006 at the Denver Western Stock Show, where 400 to 500 public attendees are expected to come to learn about PV. We will continue to provide technical support to federal, state, and local organizations, such as the Rocky Mountain Oilfields Testing Center in Casper, Wyoming, and the Federal Aviation Administration for the installation of PV systems. DOE Headquarters activities will be supported on request. 4.2 Domestic Technical Support (SNL) Activities in FY 2006 will focus on developing a paper on PV residential systems with Tucson Electric Power. 5. Major FY 2005 Publications 5.1 National Renewable Energy Laboratory G.W. Braun, P.F. Varadi, and J. Thornton, “Energy Secure Schools: Technology, Economic, and 84 Policy Considerations.” Presented at the
