Revolutionary Air Quality Sensor with Perovskite Solar Cells

• Revolutionize air quality monitoring with Macnica's innovative sensor, powered by perovskite solar cells and semi-solid batteries for sustainable energy and long-lasting performance.

Macnica has developed a new air quality sensor that utilizes perovskite solar cells and semi-solid batteries. The sensor, which uses perovskite solar cells from EneCoat Technologies, has been tested in the company's office in Tokyo for several years, demonstrating its effectiveness as a sustainable energy source even under low illumination. Leveraging the knowledge gained from this demonstration project, Macnica has incorporated a semi-solid battery from NGK Insulators into the sensor to ensure long life and safety for IoT sensors.

The new air quality sensor has been installed in the offices of the Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building since late February, where it is monitoring air quality parameters such as CO2, temperature, humidity, and illumination. This sensor is part of Macnica's Indoor air quality monitoring solution "AiryQonnect," aimed at improving the quality of life by enhancing air quality.
