The US Department of Energy (DOE) will provide US$46.2 million in funding for 48 PV projects as part of the department’s SunShot Initiative.
These renewable-energy projects are expected to develop innovative, early-stage solar power technologies that are designed to lower costs and improve reliability and efficiency.
SunShot Initiative director Charlie Gay noted: “The SunShot Initiative is a proven driver of solar energy innovation. These projects ensure there’s a pipeline of knowledge, human resources, transformative technology solutions, and research to support the industry.”
These projects are part of two programs: Photovoltaics Research and Development 2: Modules and Systems (PVRD2), which will spur research in PV technology, along with Technology to Market 3 (T2M3), which supports early-stage tech research.
Cost share requirements will also lead to additional private sector funding — creating a total public and private investment of nearly US$65 million.
PVRD2 supports a number of PV research sectors, including module design, high-risk emerging research, and technology facilitating rapid installations. Close to 80% of these projects are led by academic institutions, solidifying the next generation of energy researchers.
T2M3 selects solar energy technologies and focuses on research to address early-stage, pre-commercial risk reduction.

A solar PV system is custom-designed for your home. Final solar system price may vary based on your location, monthly utility bill, government incentives and rebates, the condition of your home, and local installation prices. Solar PV system output and estimated savings are calculated based on several factors including product type, system production, geography, weather, shade, electricity use, full utilization of the 30% solar investment tax credit, and utility rate structures and rate increases. Savings on your total electricity costs are not guaranteed. Financing options and terms vary by location, and may not be available in all areas.
