Dutch have shown a lot of creativity when it comes to new Solar applications.<br />

required that really address the problems of<br />

the future. The Dutch innovative program on<br />

Solar energy focuses on three main topics:<br />

PV systems and applications, Wafer based<br />

silicon - and Thin film PV technology.<br />

Over 100 companies and research institutes<br />

currently work together on the integration of<br />

solar energy systems in the built environment,<br />

infrastructure and electricity grid.<br />

The intention is to commit to further acceleration<br />

of the development and use of Solar energy in the<br />

Netherlands, while achieving the greatest possible<br />

added value for the Dutch economy. These new<br />

developments are also shown in demonstration<br />

projects carried out by the research institues in<br />

collaboration with commercial companies, and are<br />

meant to improve further applications of<br />
