Solar Electricity Roadmap Workshop
Background
The IEA intends to update its technology roadmaps for solar electricity technologies – both PV and STE (aka CSP) – in 2014. The updates will be launched in September 2014.
To this end, we will convey two main workshops. Each workshop will have one PV day, and one STE day.
This first workshop focussed on market status, technology improvements, and vision for the future, based on the forthcoming Energy Technology Perspectives publication.
The second workshop is likely to take place late March or early April 2014, possibly in the United States. It will focus on milestones and policies, including market design and support policies.
