Abstract

The DoE funded Solar Energy Technology Program (SETP) within the Research and Technology division of The Boeing Company has been operating successfully since March 2007. June 2010 marks the close of the partnership with production and installation completion of a 100kW power plant at California State University at Northridge (CSUN). The XR700 Proof of Manufacturing (POM) design, fully automated manufacturing operation and power plant installation are discussed and evaluated. The completion of the CSUN power plant represents a critical milestone in the commercial development and deployment of the XR optics-based CPV power solution.
