Planning, Procuring, & Constructing on-site PV [Slides]

A developer will install a renewable energy system on DOE property. In exchange, DOE agrees to purchase the power generated by the system. These power purchase payments repay the developer over the contract term. The developer owns, operates, and maintains the system for the life of the contract.

III-V PV Cell Core Capability (Final Technical Report)

This Core project developed III-V photovoltaics for terrestrial applications, focusing on high efficiency architectures and on cost-reduction. III-V cells have demonstrated the highest efficiencies of any photovoltaic materials system, reaching over 30% for two- junction tandems and over 47% for more complex concentrator cells. III-Vs have other characteristics that make them attractive to a range of terrestrial and near-terrestrial energy applications, such as being direct absorbers, lightweight and potentially flexible, having good thermal coefficient, good radiation hardness, and being very stable and durable. Cost is a key challenge with III-Vs, however, because of the high cost of epitaxy and processing.

Solar PV, Wind Generation, and Load Forecasting Dataset for ERCOT 2018: Performance-Based Energy Resource Feedback, Optimization, and Risk Management (P.E.R.F.O.R.M.)

This report describes the Advanced Research Projects Agency-Energy Performance-Based Energy Resource Feedback, Optimization, and Risk Management (PERFORM) Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT) dataset consisting of load, solar, and wind deterministic and probabilistic forecasts at three timescales. This dataset consists of 1 year of time-coincident load, wind, and solar actuals and probabilistic forecasts for a region similar to ERCOT. All the data are stored in Hierarchical Data Format 5 (HDF5) files and have been uploaded to an Amazon Web Services repository. The ERCOT data set has 2 years (2017, 2018) of actuals and 1 year (2018) of probabilistic forecasts. These data are provided at various spatial (i.e., site-level, zone-level, and system-level) and temporal scales (i.e., day-ahead, intraday, and intra-hour). Specifically, data are provided for 125 existing wind sites, 22 existing solar sites, 139 proposed wind sites, and 204 proposed solar sites.
