Abstract
Near term consideration of development and commercialization requirements
of photovoltaic power systems will increase the potential information generated
during the experimental and field test phases of the photovoltaic technology
development process. This report summarizes the research activities of the
MIT Energy Laboratory Photovoltaics Project during its first year. The report
discusses results of residential systems modeling, or market survey analysis
and institutional analysis carried out in conjunction with the large scale
photovoltaic field test at Mead, Nebraska, preliminary analysis of the social
and environmental costs of photovoltaic power system development relative to
conventional electrical power generation and the development of energy system
R&D decision models. In addition, the report lists project reports and
briefly discusses research work to be carried out in the second year of the
project.
