It is also high on insitu resource developements from a lunar mission plan using the Falcon 9 heavy to get men to the moon to set up a toehold to stay....

Re: 3D printing of solar cells
The technology thats also improving is the first level convertor that allows for the voltage from the cells to be a steady voltage with out saging of current loading as it charges the batteries that we connect them to.
The new technology will significantly enhance energy harvest from PV modules
High frequency coils and transformers...
