Abstract
The Photovoltaic Manufacturing Technology project (PVMaT) is a government/industry research and development R&D partnership involving joint efforts between the federal government (through the U.S. Department of Energy [DOE]) and members of the U.S. photovoltaic (PV) industry. The project's goal is to assist U.S. industry in retaining and extending its world leadership role in the manufacture andcommercial development of PV components and systems. PVMaT is designed to do this by helping the U.S. PV industry improve manufacturing processes, accelerate manufacturing cost reductions for PV modules, improve commercial product performance, and lay the groundwork for a substantial scale up of U.S.-based PV manufacturing plant capacities.
