The SDLE Research Center at Case Western Reserve University (CWRU) is a world-class research center dedicated to data science and analytics applied to materials and energy sciences.
Established in 2011 by Prof. Roger H. French, the SDLE Center focuses on:-
○ Lifetime and degradation science of solar photovoltaic (PV) materials, and other environmentally exposed, long-lived (>25 years) technologies
○ Accelerated laboratory and outdoor real-world exposures and evaluations of outdoor exposed technologies such as solar, led lighting and building envelope materials
○ Energy efficiency and virtual energy auditing of buildings, using engineering epidemiology and data analytics
○ Data-mining, statistical- and machine-learning applied to materials
○ Petabyte/Petaflop big data analytics applied to time-series, spectral and image datasets
○ Non-relational data warehousing and analytics environment for complex systems
Researchers from the SDLE Research Center and CWRU were on WCPN’s The Sound of Ideas last month to talk about solar power.

According to Timothy Peshek, formerly with NREL (now at CWRU) and lead author of the JVSTA paper, the researchers started out in 2009 trying to show that adding ZrO
