A new funding round from the Australian Renewable Energy Agency (ARENA) will provide up to $40 million to support ultra low cost solar. Funding will advance the research and commercialisation of solar photovoltaic (PV) technology. This will help deliver ‘Solar 30 30 30’ – the Australian Government’s target of 30% module efficiency and a cost of 30 cents per installed watt at utility scale by 2030.
Solar is one of 6 priority technologies in the Australian Government’s . Reducing the cost of solar PV generation is critical to unlocking the potential of other low emissions technologies.
