Abstract :
It is argued that the future for the engineer in the solar technologies is bright as the US Energy Research and Development Administration (ERDA) is coming to grips with the challenges offered to assure the US\´ energy supplies and about the role of the engineering profession in accomplishing that task. ERDA\´s role of "option generator" is described. In that role ERDA will play a significant part not just for the next few years; ERDA is charged with short, medium, and long-term responsibilities lasting beyond the year 2000.
