Retrospective Benefit-Cost Evaluation of DOE Investment in Photovoltaic Energy Systems
- RTI International, Research Triangle Park, NC (United States)
This study is a retrospective analysis of net benefits accruing from DOE's investment in photovoltaic (PV) technology development. The study employed a technology cluster approach. That is, benefits measured for a subset of technologies in a meaningful cluster, or portfolio, of technologies were compared to the total investment in the cluster to provide a lower bound measure of return for the entire cluster.
