 FP7-CHEETAH Project

CHEETAH Project is directly linked tp the JP on Photovoltaic Solar Energy (EERA-PV). It is a combined collaborative project (CP) and coordination and support action (CSA) funded under the European Commission’s 7th Framework programme. CHEETAH’s aimed to solve specific R&D issues in the EERA-PV Joint Program and to overcome fragmentation of European PV R&D in Europe and intensify the collaboration between R&D providers and industry to accelerate the industrialization of innovations.

With 16 nationalities represented in the consortium, and 34 EERA-PV members,  CHEETAH's ambition has been to develop technology and foster innovative manufacturing capabilities and photovoltaic products so that Europe can develop its technological and industrial capacity in all parts of the value chain.
