Abstract

The United States Department of Defense (DoD) has an aggressive, wide-ranging strategy to broaden photovoltaics (PV) use for military purposes. The DoD potential market is immense. Some estimates have placed this market as high as 3800 megawatts (MW) over the long term. The key organization to develop and implement a PV utilization strategy is the DoD PV Review Committee. Funding for PV in the DoD is through the Energy Conservation Investment Program (ECIP), the Strategic Environmental Research and Development Program (SERDP), the Federal Energy Management Program (FEMP), and through operations and maintenance budgets. Procurement actions are (or about to be) initiated for ten separate projects representing nearly 1.4 MW of PV during 1994 or early 1995. These range in size from 60 to 450 kilowatts (kW) and are primarily intermediate-sized PV-diesel hybrid systems with one large grid interactive project.

美国国防部陆地光伏计划:1994年现状报告

美国国防部(DoD)有一个积极的、广泛的战略，以扩大光伏(PV)用于军事目的。国防部的潜在市场是巨大的。一些人估计，从长远来看，这个市场的规模将高达3800兆瓦。制定和实施光伏利用战略的关键组织是国防部光伏审查委员会。国防部对光伏的资金来自节能投资计划(ECIP)、战略环境研究与发展计划(SERDP)、联邦能源管理计划(FEMP)以及运营和维护预算。1994年或1995年初已开始(或即将开始)为10个独立项目进行采购，这些项目的光伏发电量接近1.4兆瓦。这些系统的容量从60千瓦到450千瓦不等，主要是中型的光伏-柴油混合动力系统，带有一个大型电网互动项目。
