Support of PSU’s research creates an ideal partnership for SCC as its new solar energy division, SCC Solar moves forward with implementation of advanced
solar technologies.
I appreciate very much the freedom and flexibility that you implied in your donation. I am still thinking of all the ways that these funds can be used to enrich the solar activities I do, said Dr. Carl Wamser, professor, department of chemistry, PSU.
We’re grateful for your partnership in expanding resources for the sciences, one of the University’s leading priorities. Philanthropy like yours helps to provide a high quality research and teaching environment. Your contribution will show a strong return in the years ahead as Portland State scientists continue to create new knowledge and find groundbreaking ways to apply it to industry, improve the quality of lives and sustain our planet’s resources, said Wim Wiewel, president of PSU.
Collaboration with industry is an important component of our growth in research. I hope that you will find avenues for investigations and idea sharing with Carl and other scientists at PSU. Your gift to Dr. Wamser’s program will strengthen his ability to disseminate information about his work and lead to exploring a new area in solar research — the solar generation of fuel, said Marvin A. Kaiser, dean, College of Arts and Sciences, PSU.
Our corporate goal is to develop and implement clean renewable solar energy while supporting the work being conducted locally that will provide valuable results for both PSU and SCC, said Gary W. Phillips, president of Silicon Chemical Corporation. We share a common vision for the future of solar energy.
