Micro Nano Breakthrough
Conference (MNBC) & Oregon Built Environment & Sustainable
Technologies Center (Oregon BEST) presents Solar Materials
Symposium
Business Wire
Jun. 22, 2009
The hottest region in the
North America for investment in solar manufacturing is the
Pacific Northwest, and significant installations, including
a 75MW plant east of Seattle, continue to be announced. The
Solar Materials Symposium is a unique opportunity to learn
more about the opportunities in the technologies underlying
this key emerging industry. |

Two mixed research/industry panels will
discuss problems and perspectives surrounding current PV
materials and the exciting potential of new nano/micro PV
technologies. Oregon BEST will also highlight the results of
an Oregon-wide inventory of university solar research
assets. The Oregon BEST Solar Materials Symposium is a
must-attend event for solar material researchers and
industry representatives.
Keynote speakers at the symposium include Dr. Nate Lewis of
Caltech on a "Global Energy Perspective" and Dr. Jessika
Trancik of MIT on "Nanostructured Porous Materials for Low
Carbon Energy Conversion". Program information is at
oregonstate.edu/conferences/MNBC/solar.html and speaker bios
are at oregonstate.edu/conferences/MNBC/speakerbios.html
Admission to the Solar Materials Symposium is included with
registration for the Micro Nano Breakthrough Conference. The
MNBC, co-hosted by the Washington Technology Center
(www.watechcenter.org) and Oregon Nanoscience and
Microtechnologies Institute (www.onami.us), is widely
considered the best event of its kind in the United States.
