Tandem solar cells border in the direction of 30% effectiveness
Late in 2020, scientists in Germany and also Lithuania announced a new landmark in so-called "tandem" solar cells-- that is, cells made from two different sorts of photovoltaic material. Writing in Scientific Research, the Helmholtz-Zentrum Berlin/Kaunas University team reported that its perovskite/silicon tandem cell had a photovoltaic or pv conversion effectiveness (PCE) of 29.15%, vanquishing the previous optimum of 26.2% for a tandem cell.
