Domestic policy review of solar energy. Volume 1. Final report, international panel

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:5897529

The Federal government has a growing number of international activities relating to solar energy. These programs, which are assuming increased importance within the overall context of US foreign policy in energy, derive from different legislative authorities (Section 2) and serve a variety of US interest. Overlapping jurisdictions appear to exist with regard to programs with developing countries. The scope of existing activities is broad, including cooperative arrangements and agreements with both industrial and developing countries in research and development on solar technologies, energy and resource assessments, training in energy management, institutional development and demonstration of solar technologies (Section 3). A brief assessment of major activities is provided in Section 4.
