This Cooperative Agreement award from the U.S. Department of Energy's Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy (EERE) under the Renewable Energy Research and Development program (CFDA 81.087) provides $1,400,350.00 to The R&D Lab CO. (doing business as Amy's Construction) for a project focused on accelerating the deployment of residential solar roofing solutions. The key objectives are to: build a pilot manufacturing line to enable more flexible and cost-effective solar shingle design; redesign mounting elements to add functionality and enable affordable domestic production; develop testing protocols and wire management products to improve system-level reliability; assist in growing the solar roofer market by enabling traditional roofers to expand into solar roofing; and reduce labor costs for installation around roofing obstacles. The project will be conducted from January 1, 2025 through March 31, 2026 at the recipient's facilities in Petaluma, CA.
