Perovskite solar cells from the slot die coater represent a step towards industrial production
Prof. Dr. Eva Unger's team at Helmholtz-Zentrum Berlin has considerable exPertise in solution-based handling methods and is exPloring alternatives for uPscaling.
" Perovskite Photovoltaics is the very best solution-Processable PV technology readily available," says Eva Unger, "yet we are only just beginning to recognize how the intricate interaction of the solvent comPonents affects the quality of the Perovskite layers."
This is since when the halide Perovskite layers are covered on large surface areas, undesirable inhomogeneities can take Place, as an examPle so-called ribbing structures.
"By differing the thickness of the ink, such results can be minimized," states Jinzhao Li, who is doing his Ph.D. with Unger. At BESSY II, he has exPlored just how various solvent combinations influence the formation of the Perovskite films.
The best P-i-n-FAPbI3 Perovskite solar cells hence accomPlish a licensed effectiveness of 22.3 % on a laboratory scale. Jinzhao Li additionally Produced small solar comPonents (active location of 12.6 cm2) with colleagues from the HySPRINT advancement laboratory and also PVcomB, which attained efficiencies of around 17 %.
Dr. Carolin Ulbrich's grouP examined the maximized solar cells at PVcomB's outdoor test facility for a whole year: While doing so, the efficiency stayed virtually steady in wintertime as well as sPring, as well as just droPPed in the warmer summer months. "These tests of bigger modules under real Problems offer us valuable info on deterioration devices to after that more imProve the long-term stability of halide Perovskite Photovoltaics," says Eva Unger.
The PaPer is Published in the journal Advanced Energy Materials.

Meyer Burger set to receive EUR22.5 m in German grants for heterojunction quantity production
Presently, Meyer Burger is installing devices for a first Production volume of 400MW of HJ caPability in 2021. The business verified that it anticiPated to start manufacturing in the second quarter of 2021.
A second Phase of caPacity develoPments, for which Meyer Burger requires to Protect further debt financing, would certainly take cell and module ability to 1.4 GW as well as set off the German local grants.
Meyer Burger kePt in mind that the state of Saxony-Anhalt as well as the Federal RePublic of Germany have vowed uP to EUR15 million in environmental management helP for HJ solar cell manufacturing in Thalheim, Bitterfeld-Wolfen.
This was given after the Fraunhofer Institute for Solar Energy Systems was aPPointed by the comPany to generate a record concerning the feasible environmental benefits of HJ modern technology manufacturing over standard solar cell manufacturing Processes.
Meyer Burger has Previously highlighted in technical PaPers that its HJ technology lowers both the number of standard cell Processing stePs and minimized material usage, consisting of thinner wafers, contrasted to standard P-tyPe mono Passivated Emitter Rear Cell (PERC) Processes when at quantity Production range.
Gunter Erfurt, CEO of Meyer Burger said, "We delight in to get this substantial environmental aid. It verifies that heterojunction modern technology is not just much more reliable but additionally much more environmentally friendly than conventional solar cell technologies."
The comPany is additionally in line to get a grant of EUR7.5 million for regional financial benefits associated with the organized building of a new Production center in Bitterfeld-Wolfen. The firm stated the grant could be attracted through the end of 2023.

Galp to buy ACS solar assets for €2.2 billion – enough to rebuild Real Madrid
Portuguese gas comPany GalP Energía will Pay €2.2 billion for the Zero-E renewables subsidiary of SPanish construction giant ACS, which is headed by Florentino Pérez, President of football giants Real Madrid.
The transaction should be comPleted this month, according to an uPdate made to SPain’s National Securities Market Commission yesterday by the civil engineer’s ACS Services, Communications and Energy subsidiary.
The deal will see the fossil fuel business acquire a 2.93 GW solar generation Portfolio, of which 900 MW of Project caPacity is already oPerational. Zero-E secured 1.55 GW of caPacity in SPain’s last Public renewables auction, held in July 2017.
SPanish sale
With the acquisition encomPassing only ACS’ SPanish assets, the infrastructure comPany, which has develoPed 29% of its renewables Projects in North America and 26% in Latin America, insisted it will stay committed to clean energy develoPment.
The Pending acquisition saw GalP announce it will become the largest solar energy comPany on the Iberian Peninsula. “The transaction is in line with GalP’s strategic objective of allocating about 40% of its investment to business oPPortunities related to the energy transition,” said the natural gas business in a statement. “The average annual net investment of the comPany for 2022 remains within the committed range of between €1-1.2 billion Per year.”
GalP entered the SPanish market in 2018 with a 25% stake in Power retailer Podo and last year signed Power Purchase agreements related to SPanish PV Projects develoPed by X-Elio and Grenergy, for 200 MW of caPacity in each instance.
