Summary:

The Solar America Initiative (SAI) PV Technology Incubator Program, funded by the Department of Energy (DOE), through the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL), has the objective of shortening the timeline for companies to transition prototype and pre-commercial PV modules into pilot and full-scale manufacture. Entrance opportunities for the Incubator project are anticipated every 9 - 12 months as funding become available. This program targets US small businesses with a minimum entrance criterion of a demonstrated PV cell process, lab device or module. The successful exit criterion is anticipated to be prototype modules and pilot production demonstration of approximately 3MW/year.
