A new opportunity to join the FME SOLAR team! A PhD position within intermediate band gap solar cells at the department of Physics at NTNU. Deadline: 2nd of May.
FME SOLAR is a national research center for solar power, focusing on photovoltaics (PV). It is jointly funded by the Research Council of Norway and our partners. FME SOLAR is dedicated to supporting the broad PV industry, the public sector and society in Norway by providing competence and cutting edge R&D in this very important field.
important challenges
Sustainability and circularity
With more than 1 billion PV modules installed every year, sustainability is becoming increasingly important. FME SOLAR addresses both sustainability in production and installation, as well as recycling of PV materials and components.
Supporting accelerated deployment of PV power plants
For the PV industry to continue on its growth trajectory, digital tools supporting development, deployment, operations and maintenance, as well as integration of a rapidly growing number of PV power plants worldwide are needed.
Photovoltaics here, there, everywhere?
FME SOLAR will investigate the opportunities and challenges related to the deployment of PV power plants of all sizes through improved integration in buildings and infrastructure, co-use of land and water, as well as in new environments. Public acceptance is required for further upscaling and is an important aspect of the FME SOLAR research.
