Currently engagement concerning PicoPV Systems increases. In order to advance the framework for project development in this field EnDev has effected various activities. One of these is a test series for PicoPV Systems.
Seven solar lanterns reached the second testing stage, of which four are German-made: the Solux LED 100 and Solux LED 50 of the Solux e.V. development assistance project, the Solar 2007-1 by the Freilassing solar promotion project, and the sun x-set mobile produced by Würth.
