The High-level Goals of the Project Are to: • Develop a New Metrology System for Imaging Solar Cell Defects and Glass Crack Defects in Fielded Cdte Solar Panels and for Establishing Baseline Images Prior to Installation. • Develop an Ai Software Platform to Analyze the Images Captured and Automatically Detect the “defects” Therein. • Correlate the PL Signatures Found to Field Performance of the Panels, So We Know Which Signatures to Worry About. • Conduct Partial Shade Induced Damage Testing and Capture the Defect Signatures Associated With This Degradation Mode. the Outcomes of the Project Will Be: • Reduced Costs, Higher Performance, and Higher Financial Returns of Cdte Systems According to Techno-economic Models. • Lower Risks and a Reduced Barrier for Investment in Cdte Systems.

Everything here is this single award's whole record — signed, amended, paid — not a fiscal-year slice. The by-year charts elsewhere split an award across the years it was committed; this page keeps it whole.
Committed is what the government has legally promised on this award so far. Contracts can also carry a ceiling — the maximum if every option is exercised. Unspent ceiling is headroom, not money owed.
The cash actually disbursed against this award. The gap from committed is the disbursement pipeline: promised, not yet cashed.
Each transaction is a signing event — an action that created or changed the award, dated the day it was signed — not a payment. Negative amounts are real: money de-committed at closeout or renegotiation.
One bar, the award’s whole arithmetic: paid out, then committed, not yet paid, then .
