The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) is proposing to provide funding to Silicon Valley Materials Technology (SVMT) to develop a novel process for the formulation of photovoltaic (PV) metallization paste, with reduced silver content. Specifically, a cavitation process would be applied to paste synthesis. The project would be completed over three Budget Periods (BPs), with a Go/No-Go Decision Point in between each BP. This NEPA Determination is applicable to all three BPs.
