Abstract
For technical, economic and also ecological reasons photovoltaic power generation is not a technology which could be used as a short term replacement for other forms of energy. For the immediate future, therefore, it must be regarded as an additional energy source. The development potential of this technology can, however, be estimated on the basis of the physics of photovoltaics and is very great so that greater support for this technology is easily justified. An efficient development aid for photovoltaics is made up of three components - research and development to improve the cells themselves as well as other components of the systems and to reduce their cost - promotion and application particularly of pilot systems and demonstration systems to gather experience and increase the market - information and training to provide objective information on this technology and to train specialists for its successful application. 14 figs., tabs., 17 refs.
