SETO Director, Dr. Becca Jones-Albertus, spoke at Sandia National Laboratories’ G3P3 Groundbreaking ceremony and celebrated this project as the final phase of DOE’s $100 million investment in the Generation 3 CSP program. This new CSP pilot plant will use sand-like ceramic particles and can withstand temperatures greater than 800°C, making the future of fully integrated thermal transport systems, from solar input to thermal energy storage, a real possibility.
Don't forget to participate in these funding opportunities, prizes, and solicitations:
The National Community Solar Partnership (NCSP) recently launched a new community solar training program as part of its Community Power Accelerator Prize competition. The Community Power Accelerator™ Learning Lab is designed to provide solar developers with critical resources and know-how to help them launch new equity-focused community solar projects. The learning lab is initially available to those competing in the Community Power Accelerator Prize.
Residential solar energy generates more than just renewable power; it also generates household savings, real estate value, and grid reliability and resilience. Learn more about what residential solar can do for you.
SETO has identified potential pathways to a more sustainable, reliable, and resilient supply chain for PV technologies. Read the white paper to learn more about the type and scale of solar supply chain disruption risks, options for a domestic supply chain, and key considerations to enable a more secure energy future.
The DOE Industrial Efficiency and Decarbonization Office announced a $23 million funding opportunity that will establish a regional network of Onsite Energy Technical Assistance Partnerships to help industrial facilities and other large energy users increase the adoption of onsite clean energy technologies. Entities with expertise in onsite energy, including with PV and solar thermal, are encouraged to submit a letter of intent by February 28 at 5 p.m. ET.
