Consortium aims to boost US clean energy leadership, investment in next-generation CdTe PV
E-Mail As part of an effort to help address America's and the world's needs for clean energy, the Wright Center for Photovoltaics at The University of Toledo (UToledo), Colorado State University (CSU) and the U.S. Department of Energy's National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) have teamed with U.S.-based companies to form the U.S. Manufacturing of Advanced Cadmium Telluride (US-MAC) photovoltaics consortium. Cadmium telluride (CdTe, also known as "CadTel") is a next-generation photovoltaic (PV) semiconductor technology with potential for continued improvements in cost and performance. Ma...
