Department of Energy Funding Boosts US-MAP Research into Perovskites
April 21, 2021
The U.S. Department of Energy has awarded $40 million to fund continuing research into perovskites, with much of the money going to facilities connected to a consortium led by the
National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL).
The collaborative effort established at NREL two years ago called the U.S. Manufacturing of Advanced Perovskites Consortium (US-MAP) is a public-private effort involving laboratories, universities, and private industry.
The consortium brings together leaders in perovskite research, development, and manufacturing,
to reduce costs and minimize risks for potential investors.
The DOE funds support research and development efforts to advance perovskite photovoltaic
