The fabrication of pure silicon is energy intensive, but solar cells can return 10 times more energy than is used to fabricate them. By investing in the development of silicon solar cells, Australia will develop a technology capable of encapsulating its vast coal resources within pure silicon. This has the potential to create an export market of clean energy and have an explosive effect on the growth of the local industry and skilled jobs. This project will bolster the already prominent position of Australia in the field of photovoltaic solar energy by establishing collaborations with the top international organisations in the field. It will also coordinate efforts with all the main university research groups in the country.

纯硅的制造是能源密集型的，但太阳能电池可以返回10倍于制造它们所用的能量。通过投资硅太阳能电池的开发，澳大利亚将开发一种能够将其巨大的煤炭资源封装在纯硅中的技术。 这有可能创造一个清洁能源出口市场，并对当地工业和技术工作的增长产生爆炸性影响。 该项目将通过与该领域的顶级国际组织建立合作关系，巩固澳大利亚在光伏太阳能领域的突出地位。它还将与该国所有主要大学研究小组协调努力。
