ABSTRACT
The solarindustry is bourgeoningin the UnitedStates, with new developmentsin photovoltaicresearch. This emergingfield, abettedby governmentfund- ing and subsidies,needs the capacityto explorenew ideasand expandon existing technologiesthrough facilitiesthat enableand facilitateresearch and production. With increasedthreats of global warming,imminent climatechange, and rising oil prices,solar power will bea critical componentof America's future, and will requiresignificant investment in the nearterm.
To facilitate thesolar industry and emergingclean energy technologies, this thesisproject proposes an incubatorfor start-upcompanies involved with silicon-basedtechnologies, thin-film technologies,or organicPVs to occupyand investin. The premiseof the program isto providea seriesof sharedspaces - wet labs,clean rooms,conference spaces, reception areas, and other communalresources - along with privatespaces, including offices, research facilities, and meeting rooms.The projectis both a R&Dfacility as well asa demonstrationlaboratory fornew technologies. Located12 miles north of Bostonat the Industr-Plex Superfundsite in Woburn,Massachusetts, the designaims to revitalizeand environmentallyreinvigorate the localarea.

"Radicallyincreased resource productivity isthe cornerstoneof naturalcapitalism because using resourcesmore effectivelyhas three significant benefits: It slows resourcedepletion at one end of the valuechain, lowerspollution at the other end, and providesa basisto increaseemployment with meaningfuljobs."
Thesolar industry is bourgeoningin the UnitedStates, with new developmentsin photovoltaicresearch. This emergingfield, abetted by govern- ment funding and subsidies,needs the capacityto explorenew ideasand expandon existing technologiesthrough facilitiesthat enableand facili- tate researchand production. With increasedthreats of global warming,imminent climate change,and rising oil prices,solar power will be a critical component of America'sfuture, and will requiresignificant investment in the nearterm.
"The cost of solar cells hasbeen dropping for severaldecades and is expectedto continuefalling for the indefinitefuture. With eachdoubling of cumulative production,the manufacturingeconomics of scaledrop the pricean additional 20 percent."
"The type of innovation changesthrough time. In the renewablessector, different energysources have reachedmaturity at different points,and there have beendifferent "generations" of innovationwithin particularrenewable energy sources" SOLARPRODUCT MANUFACTURERS

II. CONTEXT EPASuperfund Sites
Superfund: "America'sunique statutory scheme to usethe more draconianelements of tort law to compelprivate businesses and public entitiesto clean up hazardouswaste sites" TheNational Priorities List (NPL)tracts the sitesthat most seriouslythreaten public health and the environment. "The Superfundprogram is the principalfederal effort for cleaningup hazardouswaste sites and protecting publichealth and the environment from releasesof hazardoussubstances. The Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and LiabilityAct of 1980(CERCLA) established the program,and the SuperfundAmendments and ReauthorizationAct of 1986(SARA) amended"
Drawingauthority and funds from the Superfundprogram, the BrownfieldsEconomic Redevelopment Initiative providesfunding assistanceto characterize andclean up minimallycontaminated sites, often idled or abandonedfactories, as a preludeto their redevelopment.Issues include the Environmental ProtectionAgency's authority to set up the programand the proper dispositionof appropriatedfunds. The Superfundprogram is the principalfederal effort for cleaningup inactivehazardous wastesites and protecting publichealth and the environ- ment from releasesof hazardous substances."States define brownfield sites indifferent ways,but they usuallyecho EPA'sdefinition, encompassing 'urban industrialor commercialfacilities that areabandoned or underutilizeddue, in part,to environmentalcontamination or fearof contamina- tion"' EPASUPERFUND SITES 400

1. LoveCanal. Niagara Falls, New York
2. TimesBeach. St. LouisCounty, Missouri
3. Picillo Farm.Coventry, Rhode Island 1. LOVECANAL NiagaraFalls, New York
LoveCanal, a smallcommunity near Niagra Falls, New York, is one of the early examplesof a nationalcontroversy and environmentalnotoriety. Originallydesigned to be a'model city', LoveCanal lost muchof its funding, becamea dumping site for the city during the 1920's,and later a chemicalwaste site during the 1940's.21,000 tons of toxic wastewere buried in the abandoned"Love Canal" between 1942and 1952,by Hooker Chemical.The City of NiagraFalls consequently allowed homesand a schoolto be built on this site,despite awareness of the hazardousmaterials. Consequently,a public healthemergency was issued;burns, diseases, and birth defectswere just someof the ensuingoutcomes. "Among its lega- cies, LoveCanal will likely long endureas a nationalsymbol of a failure to exercisea senseof concernfor future generations.It was indeeda situa- tion wherethe inhabitantsof LoveCanal "overflowed into the wastesinstead of the other way around." LoveCanal is an important casestudy becauseof its role with respectto the history of Superfundsand CERCLA(Comprehensive Environmental Response,Compensation, and LiabilityAct). The public outcryand devastatingrepercussions from this environmentaldisaster helped spur the nationalefforts to addresstoxic contaminationof land.
"The LoveCanal site inNiagara Falls, New York,first brought the issueto nationalprominence when the state healthcommissioner declared a state of emergency thereon August2, 1987." ENTRY P~ow\BlTED 2. TIMESBEACH St.L Time Beachwas a town outside of St.Louis, MO that was completelyevacuated in 1983because of a dioxinscare that becamethe subject of na- tional controversy.The town, founded in 1925,had a dust problem,and in the 1970'sthe roadswere sprayed with oil Loveandlater paved.The oil containeddioxin levels,and later emergedin the 1980'sduring a devastatingflood. Thetown was subsequentlyevacuated, and all residentswere forced to abandontheir homesdue to the imminent threats of the chemicals. TimesBeach is an important casestudy becauseof its role with respectto the history of Superfundsand CERCLA(Comprehensive Environmental Response,Compensation, and LiabilityAct). The public outcry and devastatingrepercussions from this environmentaldisaster helped spur the nationalefforts to addresstoxic contaminationof land. 3. PICILLOFARM Coventry,Rhode Island ThePicillo Pig Farm, in CoventryRhode Island, wasa 100-acre farm that literallyexploded in 1977,and became RhodeIsland's first officialSuper- fundsite. The farm had becomeadumping site of illegalchemicals during the1970's, which were later discovered. 1977when partof the farmexploded into aninferno that was visible for milesaround. The brownfield site has since been signed into a project agreementwith AlIcoRenewable Energy Group to turn thefarm into a $45million solar energy farm. Plans (as of 2008)include hundreds or 3x5 foot solarpanels that wouldbe motorized to facethe sun,generating up to 8 megawattsof electricity.This proposal is currentlythe largestproject plannedfor eastof the Mississippi aA IV.SITE: INDUSTRI-PLEX Woburn,Massachusetts The Industri-PlexSuperfund site, 12 miles northwest of Bostonin Woburn,Massachusetts, is an ideallocation for this prototypicalproject. Origi- nally contaminatedby toxic remnantsfrom tanneriesin the 19thand 20th centuries,the site offersa primecondition to remediatethrough careful designand planning. Convenientlysituated at a commuterrail station and minutesaway from a majorhighway (1-93), the proposedsite provides an economicallyand environmentallyviable option for re-appropriation The Industri-PlexSuperfund Site is a former chemicaland glue manufacturingfacility. Industri-plex was usedfor manufacturingchemicals such as lead-arsenicinsecticides, acetic acid, and sulfuricacid for local textile, leather,and paper manufacturingindustries from 1853to 1931.Chemicals manufacturedby other industriesat the site include phenol,benzene, and toluene. Industri-plexwas alsoused to manufactureglue from raw ani- mal hide and chrome-tannedhide wastesfrom 1934to 1969.The by-productsand residuesfrom theseindustries caused the soilswithin the site to becomecontaminated with elevatedlevels of metals,such as arsenic, lead and chrome.During the 1970s,the site was developedfor industrialuse. Excavationsuncovered and mixedindustrial by-products and wastesaccumulated over 130years. During this period,residues from animal hide wastesused in the manufactureof glue were relocatedon-site from buriedpits to piles nearswampy areas on the property.Many of the animal hide piles and lagoonson-site were leachingtoxic metalsinto the environment.In the 1980's,the site containedstreams and ponds,a warehouse and office buildings,remnant manufacturingbuildings, and hide wastedeposits buried on the site.Animal hide residuesare found on approxi- mately 20 acresof the site in four differentpiles. Portions of the animalhide piles sloughedoff, causingthe releaseof hydrogensulfide gases to the atmosphereand toxic metalsto surroundingwetlands. Residences are locatedwithin 1,000feet of the site,and morethan 34,000people livewithin 3 milesof the site.

PROGRAMANALYSIS SolarIndustry Incubator TheUnited StatesDepartment of Energyhas recently invested significant funding and effort towardsthe solarindustry. It hasenacted a seriesof initiativesand programsto help support this growing and imperativefield. One major agendais the PhotovoltaicTechnology Pre-Incubator: in 2008,the DOEannounced $17.6 million that would be awardedto six earlystage PVdevelopers across the country. This funding is part of the 2009 AmericanRecovery and ReinvestmentAct. "The goals of the projectinclude promoting grid parity for PVtechnologies, transitioning innovativePV technologies into the prototypestage, and developingprototype PVconcepts with manufacturingcosts of lessthan $1/watt." Another primary programis the PhotovoltaicTechnology Incubator project,which precededthe pre-incubatoragenda. Both of these initiatives sponsorand encouragethe developmentof newtechnologies within the photovoltaic realm. The solarindustry is getting bigger, better,and brighter. On Feb17, 2009,President Obama signed into law the AmericanRecovery and ReinvestmentAct, cementinghis support of solarand other renewableenergy sources.Billions of dollarswill be investedin funding,tax incentives,loans, and grants to increasethe useof solar energy, support energy efficiency,remove market barriers, and cultivate greenjobs "Upto $500,000is availableto smallcompanies for turning theirmodule-related technologies into prototypes. ThePhotovoltaic (PV) Technology Pre-Incubatorsolicitation, released on Jan.27, 2009,is open to U.S.small businesses or teamsled by a U.S.small business...This financial opportu- nity is administeredby DOE'sNational Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL)". Technologicalinnovation iscritical to the advanceof cleanenergy technologies. Along with policy mechanisms(such as taxesand subsidies)and externalfactors (such as public opinionand oil prices),technological progress will be crucialin order for solarproduction to becomecompetitive with other formsof energy.This will requiresubstantial innovation and improvementof currentday technologies. * LABORATORY8,000sq.m experimentalworkspaces and testing facilities. both indoorand outdoor space.
