PHOTOVOLTAIC ENGINEERING TESTBED A facility for space calibration and measurement of solar cells on the International Space Station

The Photovoltaic Engineering Testbed ("PET") is a facility to be flown on the International Space Station to perform calibration, measurement, and qualification of solar cells in the space environment and then returning the cells to Earth for laboratory use. PET will allow rapid turnaround testing of new photovoltaic technology under AM0 conditions.
