Approfondimento sul topic ENERGY.2011.2.1-2 (Tratto dal Work Programme Energy 2011):
“Technical content/scope: Europe is by far the first worldwide market for photovoltaics and is also strongly involved in both innovation and industrial applications in the field. Nevertheless, in order to achieve costs below 1€/Wp, which is required for Grid-parity for photovoltaics, an intensive and constant R&D support is required. Novel cell architectures and new processes should be developed and transferred as fast as possible into industrial applications.
One main challenge in the field is to bring e.g. nanotechnology know-how developed at laboratory scale to industry. Typically, photovoltaic industries use production lines with very large machinery with a continuous flow and are not flexible to implement new ideas.
The projects shall be focused on the scale-up of innovative and laboratory-scale photovoltaic (PV) cell processes to pilot-line-scale for industrial application. Device, process and equipment optimisation to target very high cell and module efficiency, high production throughput have to be considered at the same time. Individual proposals shall address one of the following two baseline processes:
• Innovative thin film processes based on inorganic nanostructured materials deposited on glass, metal sheets or polymers, with new cell configurations obtained through innovative methods, such as PVD, printing, or other.
• Innovative wafer-based silicon processes exploiting new cell architectures and new approaches, such as hetero junctions, rear contact cells, metal wrap through, or other.”
