[edit]

Members Survey

  • Membership Survey (http://www.pureenergysystems.com/NEC/private/surveys/activity/) - NEC member survey to assess or collect contact info, your energy websites, committee assignments, NEC task willingness, years of experience, equipment on hand.
[edit]

Infrastructure

  • Compose NEC Bylaws
  • Congress:IT:Blueprint - Review and modify page for designing the programming needs for the receiving of technology review requests, screening those, and then honing in on a few technologies in detail.
[edit]

Prepare for Upcoming

Review the 'on deck' and 'pending' lists of items below, and see if there are any changes you would like to make before the matter is brought to a vote. Go ahead and make the changes. (PESWiki is an editable website. [If you can't get in, or if making changes on this site is too difficult for you, let someone else know who can make the change for you.]). If there is any controversy about the change, it can be discussed on the nec-forum (http://groups.yahoo.com/group/nec-forum) private Yahoo!Group.

ON DECK

  • Sol Solution (http://www.Sol-Solution.net/) Has developed a photovoltaic system that takes advantage of chromatic aberration called a 'Rainbow Concentrator' to separate and concentrate the solar spectrum. This allows higher efficiencies for solar cells that are optimized for a specific range of wavelengths.
