SUMMARY:
In 2011
the America COMPETES
Reauthorization Act of 2010 was signed
into law, authorizing the United States
government to issue competitions in the
areas of technology, education and
science. The $10 million SunShot Prize:
America’s Most Affordable Rooftop
Solar challenges the ingenuity of
America’s businesses and communities
to make it faster, easier, and cheaper to
install rooftop solar energy systems.
Successful competitors will
domestically deploy at least 5,000 new
rooftop photovoltaic (PV) installations
at average pre-subsidy sales price of $2
per watt before January 1, 2015.
Winners will break a significant price
barrier, considered to be unachievable a
decade ago. Winners will prove that
they can repeatedly achieve a $2 per
watt install price using innovative,
verifiable processes and business
practices.
Today’s notice announces the
availability of draft procedures for
administration of the prize competition.
The DOE will consider any comments
received by July 13, 2012 in adopting
these procedures.
