DE-FOA-0002582 PVRD FOA

DE-FOA-0002582 PVRD FOA:
This FOA seeks to fund projects to reduce photovoltaics hardware costs and environmental impacts; and increase perovskite module performance.

These research areas will support increased photovoltaics deployment needed to meet the Biden administration’s goal of


a carbon emissions free electricity sector by 203 5. The FOA will have two topics:
• Topic 1 seeks to fund 2-3 year long research projects at a maximum of $ 1. 5M each project in federal funds to produce low-cost, high throughput photovoltaics module designs and processing methods to reduce the environmental burden, materials usage and vulnerability in the metallization and end-of-life handling of photovoltaic modules to support the transition to a decarbonized electricity system.

• Topic 2 solicits applications for projects that will bring together teams of researchers from multiple institutions and/or companies to understand and address the major issues in perovskite solar cell devices that limit the durability, scale-up, and efficiency.
