comparing different manufacturing methods for the perovskite layer to minimize cost and maximize efficiency and durability. The center will consist of four universities, the National Renewable Energy Laboratory, and three American perovskite companies. funding opportunity will award $30 million in funding for projects that address emerging challenges for grid planning operators and engineers to plan the future of the electric power grid and maintain its daily reliable operation.
“Thanks to investments we made in the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law and the Inflation Reduction Act, we are in the midst of an American renewable energy boom that is creating jobs and driving innovation and opportunity for communities in Ohio,” said. “With these investments we are continuing to position Ohio as leader in solar energy innovation and manufacturing — creating domestic energy supply chains and increasing American energy independence.
“To meet our country’s full potential as a global leader in solar energy development, we need to supercharge our domestic manufacturing. That’s true for everything from silicon wafers to tracking systems and new technologies that will help integrate more solar generation into the grid. I am proud to welcome this major federal investment in American companies that are manufacturing critical solar technologies here at home, including Albuquerque’s Guardian Devices,” said.
“We’re accelerating towards a clean energy future by spurring domestic manufacturing, establishing a resilient supply chain, and creating jobs — all with a ‘Made in America’ sticker on it. Giddy-up!” said“As we continue to grapple with the impacts of climate change, it is critical that we invest in domestic clean energy projects that improve our energy grid resilience and strengthen our energy independence,” said.
