US Department of Energy (DOE) is launching theCadmium Telluride Accelerator Consortium, a $20 million initiative designed to make cadmium telluride (CdTe) solar cells less expensive, more efficient and develop new markets for solar cell products.
美國(guó)能源部擬斥資2000萬(wàn)美元成立“加速碲化鎘發(fā)展聯(lián)盟”。該聯(lián)盟旨在推動(dòng)碲化鎘光伏電池向更便宜、更高效的方向發(fā)展,并為光伏電池產(chǎn)品開(kāi)發(fā)新的市場(chǎng)。
CdTe solar cells were first developed in the United States and make up about 20% of the market for solar modules. The Consortium intends to to spur technological advancements in CdTe manufacturing that will help increase America’s competitiveness, bolster domestic innovation, and support clean electricity deployment supporting President Biden’s goal of achieving a net-zero economy by 2050.
碲化鎘光伏電池最早是在美國(guó)開(kāi)發(fā)的,約占光伏組件市場(chǎng)的20%。該聯(lián)盟計(jì)劃推動(dòng)碲化鎘制造業(yè)的技術(shù)進(jìn)步,以實(shí)現(xiàn)拜登到2050年凈零排放的目標(biāo)。
原標(biāo)題:斥資2000萬(wàn)美元成立聯(lián)盟,推進(jìn)碲化鎘光伏電池本土制造
