Scientists at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL), City University of Hong Kong, École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL), University of Kentucky, University of Colorado, University of Toledo as well as Brown University have actually created a concept that simplifies the process of manufacturing perovskite solar cells, which can increase their path towards commercialization.

Swansea University has established an affordable as well as scalable carbon ink formulation with the ability of unlocking, for the very first time, the possibility for perovskite solar cells to be manufactured at scale.

FuturaSun commits to an overall financial investment of EUR 25 million over the next few years in the new facility. The new HQ will have R&D center, a huge test-field, a PV Academy and also a training center to recreate the proficiency of sector specialists.

Scientists at South Korea's Ulsan National Institute of Science and Technology (UNIST), Chonnam National University and also Pohang University of Science and also Technology (POSTECH) have actually created a special perovskite solar cell that utilizes alkylammonium chloride (RACI) to regulate the development of defects in the perovskite layer.

Penn State scientists use a new process called EM-FAST to create large perovskite devices in minutes, allowing for more efficient and cost-effective fabrication of next-generation solar cells.

The phase 2 of capacity development of 1.50 GW solar cell line and 1.75 GW of module production facility building and construction has been kickstarted formally. The facility will be the most sophisticated and also fully automated assembly line with built-up area of regarding 500,000 square feet, the firm shares.

Silicon, the standard semiconducting material used in a host of applications-computer central processing units (CPUs), semiconductor chips, detectors, and solar cells-is an abundant, normally occurring material. However, it is pricey to mine as well as to cleanse.

Researchers from Korea's Institute for Basic Science (IBS), Chinese Academy of Sciences, the University of Rochester in the U.S, and The Australian National University have actually boosted the photoresponsivity of a lead-halide perovskite for solar cell applications by 250%. They developed a perovskite film with a plasmonic substrate made from hyperbolic metamaterial and characterized it with transition dipole orientation.

Making use of green light and a double-layered cell, Ph.D. scientist Riccardo Ollearo has generated a photodiode that has level of sensitivity that several can just imagine.

Shunfeng International Clean Energy Ltd, the parent company of Wuxi Suntech Power Co Ltd, has announced plans to invest INR 10.5 billion (USD 1.53bn/EUR 1.43bn) to set up a 10-GW TopCon solar cell factory in Anhui, China.

Researchers from Australia and Germany set a new record with a 30.3% efficient perovskite and silicon tandem solar cell, funding by ARENA. Stay up to date with the latest Solar Energy news.

Researchers at Lund University in Sweden have developed photovoltaic nanowires using three materials to improve the efficiency of solar energy. These tandem solar cells are now being tested on satellites.

Its majority-owned subsidiary CSI Solar has actually participated in a multi-year investment agreement with the municipal government of Yangzhou City in Jiangsu Province in China. In initial phase, the company will certainly include a capacity of 14 GW of wafer and also cell production.

Purdue University scientists have actually produced new, multifunctional ligands that improve the fee transfer, power conversion capability and also long-lasting stability of perovskite solar cells.

Scientists at Switzerland's EPFL as well as Sungkyunkwan University in Korea have attended to the issue of perovskite solar cells' stability.
