As the world seeks ways to reduce energy costs and speed access to alternative energy solutions, UNC Charlotte researcher Deborah Strumsky is leading a team that will use modeling to forecast optimal investments for the array of solar energy technologies that are emerging. A bit like people considering a wide range of complex, inter-related factors when building their retirement funds - such as what funds are available to them, the amount of risk involved and how long until they retire - Strumsky and her colleagues will consider how various factors impact the performance of solar technologies.
