3.0 Implementing a Systems-Driven Approach As described in Section 1.3, a systems-driven approach (SDA) will be employed to determine priorities within the Solar Energy Technologies Program. The SDA is a methodical process by which technology development efforts are driven by well-defined and well-documented requirements based on analyses of present and potential markets, technology trade-off studies, and research and development (R&D) reviews. A definition of the systems-driven approach, a variation of the definition used previously in the Office of Advanced Automotive Technologies, is as follows: All technical targets for R&D on the components and systems funded through the Solar Energy Technologies Program are derived from a common market perspective and national energy goals, and the resultant technologies are tested and validated in the context of established criteria for each market. A key feature of the approach is the identification of market-based technical/economic requirements for each of the technologies funded within the Solar Program. Rigorous systems analysis is used to assess the impacts of improvements related to targets established for identified markets. This analysis applies to R&D conducted at fundamental levels (longer term) and more applied levels (nearer term). The analysis can also be used to assess the benefits of R&D efforts and related technologies relative to cost and to determine go/no-go decision points. Data are collected from laboratory and fielded systems to continually reassess goals, targets, progress, and critical technology paths. Coordination with industry and potential users of the technology is also a key ingredient in ensuring that the product meets the needs of the market. Ultimately, new technologies are graduated to the commercial marketplace through partnerships with industry. A computer-modeling environment will be developed, similar to the ADVISOR (Advanced Vehicle Simulator) model in use by the Office of Advanced Automotive Technologies. Technology baselines will be documented in terms of cost and performance of systems, with the goal of determining the overall levelized energy costs of new systems configurations and technology developments. Using this Solar “ADVISOR” platform, analyses will be conducted in a manner that will include rigorous review by outside experts, and will be done at a level that will allow the identification of critical R&D efforts and the performance of appropriate cost/benefit/risk analyses of technology options under consideration. In this way, the SDA ensures strong, direct linkages between the technologies developed in this plan and the national goals and markets described in Section 2. While this Multi-Year Technical Plan describes R&D activities to be conducted in a variety of technical areas, the SDA will be integrated throughout each of the technical subprograms. This section describes the development and execution of the overarching SDA for the Solar Program, whereas the technology programs described in the following sections will each use the SDA to determine their own optimal R&D paths. Most of the activities associated with the development of the systems-driven approach for the Solar Program will be completed over the next 2 to 3 years. As more SDA functionality is developed within Solar Program subprograms, a growing number of program decisions will be based on analyses conducted with the Solar “ADVISOR” platform and other analysis tools. In this way, the SDA will be an integrated tool to guide Program direction over time, and future updates to this 5-year plan will reflect the outputs of these increased analysis activities.
