The National Center for Photovoltaics (NCPV) at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory focuses on technology innovations that drive industry growth in U.S. photovoltaic manufacturing. The NCPV is a central resource for US capabilities in PV research, development, deployment, and outreach. And because of the recent success in the PV industry, NCPV scientists are expanding their research agendas to cover the broader topics of grid integration and to motivate materials research by system-level issues. In this collaborative environment, researchers are working to solve the problem of dispatching the electricity and develop ways to reduce PV prices even further, to create a solar-powered world, mitigate pollution and climate change and bring prosperity to all.
