Exclusive: UNSW Photovoltaic Center of Excellence will not close its doors Professor Green tells pv magazine, despite losing funding: pv-magazine
The Sydney Morning Herald reported yesterday that the center would have to close its doors after Australia’s Labor government cut its funding, as part of the party’s proposed cuts to finance a "cash-for-clunkers" low-emissions car program, the Greens say. However, Professor Green has told pv magazine: “Media reports that the Australian Research Council Photovoltaics Centre of Excellence at the University of New South Wales is to close are incorrect. “While it will no longer be supported under the ARC Centre of Excellence program from the end of 2010, the centre will continue to operate at UNSW and conduct world leading research, under the leadership of Professors Stuart Wenham and Martin Green.
