ERA-NET SOLAR-ERA-NET: solar research

ERA-NET SOLAR-ERA.NET invites proposals for its transnational calls on concentrating solar power and photovoltaics.

The call on concentrating solar power may address: cost reduction and efficiency increase in components; dispatchability through storage and hybridisation with conventional or renewable sources; new fluids for solar thermal energy plants. The call on photovoltaics may address: innovation processes for inorganic thin-film cells and modules; dedicated modules for building-integrated photovoltaics; grid integration and large-scale deployment of pohotovoltaics; high efficiency PV modules based on next generation crystalline silicon solar cells; solar glass and encapsulation materials.
