This quantity presents a precious evaluation of the Commission's present actions in examine on sun radiation facts and within the improvement of solar power purposes in constructions. It comprises the complaints of the second one contractors' co ordination assembly within the 3rd 4­ yr R+D programme (1985-88) in those fields, which used to be held in Brussels on 1 and a pair of OCtober 1987. the 1st assembly was once hung on thirteen and 14 November 1986. (') The study contractors' reviews awarded during this publication supply an entire account of actions at an immense level within the programme the place so much tasks have accomplished their preparatory phases and effective learn is now absolutely underway. A characteristic of the stories is the trend they illustrate of operating teams during which essentially all the Member states are represented, co working within the attainment of universal targets inside a co ordinated ecu programme. The assembly was once attended by means of 60 members and prolonged over days. displays have been made through the contractors at the goals in their tasks, development made within the study, and destiny paintings plans and priorities. every one presentation was once through a brief d- cussion. The assembly used to be additionally very important in bettering communications among the learn teams, exposing possibilities for co operation and collaboration, and tracking growth. between key achievements said within the quarter 'Solar Radiation facts' is the implementation of a community of measuring stations at 8 proto­ standard websites all through Europe.
