About this file
This document is a Special Notice for the Intelligence Advanced Research Projects Activity (IARPA) SOLSTICE Proposers' Day. The SOLSTICE program aims to develop novel solar-powered and hybrid solar-powered systems with significantly higher power density than existing technologies, capable of maintaining performance over their mission lifetime in challenging remote applications. The Proposers' Day will be held on April 9, 2024 in Washington DC and virtually to introduce the program and provide information on technical requirements and objectives. Registration is required by April 4, 2024, with limited in-person attendance spots available. The program will focus on component technology development, system prototype development, testing, and refinement for earth-orbital and earth surface environments.

OVERVIEW
The IARPA Superior Op�ons for Long-life Solar Technologies with Impressive Conversion Efficiencies (SOLSTICE) Proposers’ Day mee�ng will be held on Tuesday, May 7, 2024, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. EDT in Washington DC, to introduce the SOLSTICE program to poten�al proposers and to provide informa�on on technical requirements and program objec�ves. A virtual atendance op�on will also be available.
The SOLSTICE program aims to develop novel solar-powered and hybrid solar-powered systems with significantly higher power density than exis�ng technologies. These systems will be capable of maintaining performance over their mission life�me in challenging remote applica�ons, including in an earth-orbital environment (Track 1) and on the earth surface (Track 2). Novel component technologies and systems-level approaches will be leveraged to both maximize power output over a large range of opera�onal condi�ons and mi�gate an�cipated failure modes. This will lead to a significant increase in the total energy yield of a power system over its intended life�me and greater resilience against ever-present risks. IARPA seeks technical approaches that improve and look beyond individual component performance to consider the systems-level challenges and opportuni�es to enhance useable energy and minimize loss. Careful considera�on of the intersec�on of novel and established component technologies, including photovoltaics, op�cs, thermal management/conversion, power electronics, energy storage, and other technical areas will be needed. The program will ini�ally focus on component technology development as part of a system concept design, followed by system prototype development, tes�ng, and refinement for target environments. A dra� BAA technical sec�on is atached to this announcement.
REGISTRATION
Par�cipants must register by Friday, May 3, 2024, at noon EDT. Same day registra�ons will not be accepted. Limited spots are available for in-person atendance and early registra�on is encouraged. Only two atendees per organiza�on or research group will be permited to atend in person. The link to register is: htps://www.client-mee�ng.net/sols�ce-proposers-day.
