Abstract

PART 1: CELL MANUFACTURERS CONTINUE TO DRIVE DOWN THE COST OF MANUFACTURING AND BOOST EFFICIENCY OF THEIR PRODUCTS. BUT IT's FOR NOTHING IF INSTALLATION COSTS AND PERIPHERAL DEVICES THAT HARVEST USEABLE ENERGY FROM THE CELLS NEGATE THE MANUFACTURING COST SAVINGS, AND ADD TO THE PRICE FOR THE END USER. JOYCE LAIRD LOOKS AT WHAT IS BEING DONE ON THE USER END TO MOVE PV CLOSER TO A UNIVERSAL REALITY-ONE THAT MEETS ALL DEMANDS AT A REASONABLE COST.
