Structure and priority areas
SEII: Structure & relation with other Industry Initiatives SEII 1: Cost Reduction Improving manufacturability Materials development & sustainability Enhancing Performance Advance pilot lines SEII 2: system Integration Advance grid integration Large-scale grid integration analysis Solar resources prediction & Monitoring Code, standards, regulation Education & training Demonstration & Deployment projects Advance pilot lines Large integration of PV in urban areas (focus on BIPV) Large integration of active PV distributed power generation (focus on grid integration) Large-scale PV power generation (focus on large demonstration of new concepts and technologies) Smart grids initiative Energy Efficient Buildings initiative Green Cars initiative Awareness 11
SEII Implementation Plan 2010-2012 Core Focus of the SEII 2010-2012: selected priority areas 1. Cost reduction: paving the way to 2020 Advanced manufacturing processes for cells and modules Performance enhancement & lifetime extension Materials development & sustainability 2. System integration: paving the way to 2020 Large scale deployment (grid and building integration) Large scale PV power plants Solar resources and monitoring 3. Preparing for cost and penetration beyond 2020 levels Ultra low cost technologies Very high efficiency approaches Integration concepts for very high levels of penetration 12
Key Performance Indicators For commercial technologies (wafer silicon, TF, CPV) 1. Turn-key system price ( /kwp) 2. PV electricity generation cost ( /kwh) 3. PV module efficiency (%) 4. PV module life time (years) 5. Inverter lifetime (years) 6. PV + Storage cost ( /kwh) 7. Warranty of PV components (years) 8. System energy pay-back time (years) 9. # of advanced pilot lines For emerging and novel technologies 1. # of advanced pilot lines for ultra-low cost (printable) PV technologies 2. # of proofs of concept for very-high efficiency novel PV technologies 3. # of patents 4. # of start-up companies 5. # of proofs of concept for very high levels of PV penetration 13
Governance structure and aspects of implementation
Policy Context 1. The SEII is new to all involved and the best governance structure is still to be defined and demonstrated. 2. Implementation of the SEII should be based on a flexible and rolling program (able to rapidly evolve based on new situations and funding opportunities). 3. Joint programming on a European or multi-country level has been found to be a very difficult and lengthy process. In order not to slow down the implementation of the SEII, the level of ambition on this point should be a realistic one and grow along with the SEII itself. 4. It is essential, and the PV sector therefore expects, that dedicated public (on a short term EU, and later MS) budgets and funding instruments will be developed for projects and programs under the SEII. 5. Intellectual property rights (IPR) are essential for industry development, but should be handled in a way that optimises progress of the PV industry sector as whole and thus, of the SEII. A simple governance structure is the best solution to implement the initial phase of the SEII. 15

Official Launch of the SEII: 3-4 June 2010, Madrid What does it mean? 1. Large communication campaign across Europe 2. What do we need by then? Consolidated Structure and Governance: To have defined an SEII Advisory Board To have defined a group of Decision makers of public funding agencies. Ideally 27, one per MS. At least, 7-9 representing major PV markets and industry. This needs the leadership/support of the EC. Consolidated PV roadmap until 2020 (mainly priority areas, KPIs, milestones). Announced funding plans from the EU. DRAFT 2010-2012 Work program (Budget, KPI s, priority areas + assessment of EU added value and investment risk ) 21
