1986 JPL FSA FINAL fSKR? 



•TMPACT CF SHIiTlW: PROGRAM GOALS:- In May 1983, the U.S. Department of Qjergy (OE) 

 Photovoltaic Qiergy Technology Division issued a Natiaoal Photovoltaic Program Five-Year 

 Research Plan, 1984-1988 that significantly altered the original goals of the FSA Project. 

 The goal since the Cherry Hill Ccnference in late 1973 had been S0.50/Vp {S1.071/Wp in 

 1985 dollars) . Tlius, a PV system would have to prodxice electricity at a cost of 

 $0.263/kNh in 1985 dollars, using the energy cost tuethodology in the DCS Five-Year Re- 

 search Plan, (derived from 10* ncdule efficiency and 20-year service life, as originally 

 specified at Cherry Hill) . With the Five-Year Plan, National Program goals changed to 

 reflect revisicos in U»e outlook for conventicoal energy resources and progress made in 

 understanding the potential of PV tedinology. Current prograa goals call for 15% module 

 efficiency and a 30-Year nodule service life. YXpresseA in 1985 dollars, the price goals 

 carrespcnd to an energy cost of $0.17A)'h, making then much ixire dpmanding than the origi- 

 nal values." IFlat-Plate Array Final Report, v. vni, p.5) [enibasis added].
