October 1989 saw the launch of the Korean National Photovoltaic (PV) Project established to develop technologies for the generation of economically competitive electric power by PV systems. It is a three-stage project which will terminate in the year 2001. The technical goals and costs targets are directed at solar cell, balance of systems and system application. The objectives are: the development of PV technology through research activities, transfer of developed technology to the industries and diffusion of PV through demonstration projects to the end users. The long-term plan and recent trends in the R&D technology are reviewed, and examples of PV diffusion, demonstration projects and market outlook in Korea are provided. Some activities designed to promote collaboration with foreign countries are also discussed.
