DOD PHOTOVOLTAIC ENERGY CONVERSION SYSTEMS MARKET INVENTORY AND ANALYSIS. SUMMARY VOLUME

This report provides estimates of the potential Department of Defense market for photovoltaic energy systems, and the potential role of the DOD in promoting industry and market development. The focus of the study is on delineating near term markets. It is hoped that rapid development of these markets will provide sufficient sales volume to promote industry automation and drive down the unit cost of photovoltaic energy systems to the point where large scale DOD and civilian markets will develop.
