Accelerating Deployment of Distributed Photovoltaics in Partner Countries

Abstract

There is a significant opportunity to help developing countries quickly augment DPV programs, and a wealth of international experience and expertise to draw upon to do so. USAID has launched a multi-year program to assist countries across the DPV spectrum. The National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) is supporting USAID (and drawing on Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory and others) in developing and implementing pilot projects in selected USAID partner countries, collaborating with these countries to accelerate DPV market development.
