Partnership that includes DOE, Sandia National Laboratories, industry, utilities, and universities will invest in the 5 following projects that deals with complete grid connected systems:
- PVPowered of Bend will receive up to $3 million to optimize interconnections across PV module technologies through systems integration,
- Petra Solar of South Plainfield, NJ, which will get up to $2.9 million to improve reliability and resiliency in eight states so that high levels of PV integration can be adapted,
- Princeton Power of Princeton, NJ will be awarded up to $2.8 million to lower manufacturing costs through integrated controls for energy storage and develop inverter designs,
- Apollo Solar of Bethel, CT, will get $1.5 million to create inverters using energy storage and two-way communications between solar electrical systems and utilities,
- Florida Solar Energy Center/UCF, will get up to $1.3 million to figure out how to include higher PV penetration levels in larger electrical systems.
AS much as all these projects are important – they are Not getting us closer to be free from oil addiction…
