Latest publication:

The Strategic Research Agenda Edition 2 was launched at the 26th European PV Solar Energy Conference and Exhibition in Hamburg on 5 September 2011.

The EU PV TP Strategic Research Agenda presents the view of a group of 29 PV experts (from industry and academia) of the research that should be started now in order to reach a defined set of cost targets by certain dates (2020 and 2030). Recommendations for research topics, often including a quantitative performance target relevant to that topic, are categorised according to the time by when it is likely that the results of the research or demonstration work are widely taken up by industry.

The project offers Secretarial support for the European Photovoltaic Technology Platform: www.eupvplatform.org
