1 3 50MW of Solar Energy: Arizona State University s 60-Year History with Solar Energy Presentation to the International Conference on Sustainable Energy Technology September 12, 2017 Serena Hotel Islamabad, Pakistan Harvey Bryan, Ph.D., LEED-AP Fellow American Solar Energy Society Professor, Arizona State University Curriculum Leader for USPCASE

2 May s Solar Pump, Tempe, AZ. 1904

3 First World Conference on Solar Energy Association for Applied Solar Energy (AFASE) Conference held in Phoenix, November 2-5, 1955

4 Only a Year Before was the Modern Solar Cell Invented Bell Lab scientists, Gordon Pearson, Darryl Chapin & Calvin Fuller, 1954

5 Why Arizona

6 Early Solar Pioneers who taught at ASU Prof. John Yellott Prof. Jeffrey Cook Prof. Byard Wood Prof. Charles Backus

7 The 1973 Oil Crisis

8 Directly After the Oil Crisis, Work Started on Solar Energy Arizona Solar Energy Research Commission was formed in 1973

9 ASU Contribution to Books on Solar Energy

10 ASU Contribution to Articles on Solar Energy December 1974 August 1975

11 ASU s Monograph of its Early Solar Research Coor Hall PV Installation 108 kw

18 TÜV Rheinland Photovoltaic Testing Lab ASU Lead: Govindasamy Tamizhmani Providing quality products for the world s markets. Joint venture between TÜV Rheinland, ASU, and the APS STAR facility TÜV/PTL performs photovoltaic module qualification testing and related activities. It is one of three such unique facilities in the world testing modules from manufacturers around the world. Its staff is experienced in the analysis and full testing sequence of commercial Si solar cell technologies required by IEC 61215, IEC 61626, IEEE 1262, and UL TÜV/PTL clients/partners span the globe, from the USA, Canada and Mexico to countries in Europe, South America, Asia and, of course, Australia. The modules they submit for qualification testing encompass all technologies both in marketplace and under development.

47 ASU is Branding Everything Solar

48 Outcomes from the ASU Solar Experience Has become a national leader not only in solar R&D but also in solar deployment. Has used innovative techniques to accomplish this deployment. Shares successful experiences and practices with others. Has gained an understanding of the energy sector and how solar can aggressively participant in it. Utilizes innovative methods to represent and communicate solar performance. Engages the entire community by using the campus as a solar laboratory (in addition to adding more capacity (Red Rock II) we want to explore a battery storage as well as micro-grid and islanding demonstrations).
