Ultra-low solar bid of $0.01997/kWh in the US – not quite so sunny
PV technology has made significant progress in a short amount of time, leaving solar enthusiasts chuffed. Opponents, on the other hand, brand it as unworkable boondoggle, surviving on the crutches of subsidies and only salving the conscience of the green-minded companies cosseted by political forces. The naysayers do have partial truth in their argument - governments the world over have been supporting the growth of this child with the moniker “solar” with public finances. So, this is the partial truth and the enthusiasts have just enough firepower to say that all energy is, after all, subsidised one way or another – in terms of uncompensated costs of air pollution, congestion and global warming and the consequential irreversible damage these fossil fuels have done to the planet. Perhaps more important and statistically relevant is a report published by the IMF in 2015, which had pegged subsidies to fossil fuels at US$5.3 trillion.

Perovskite solar cells from the slot die coater represent a step towards industrial production
Steel halide perovskites are taken into consideration to be a specifically affordable and also appealing course of products for next-generation solar components. Perovskite solar cells can be produced with finishing processes making use of liquid inks made from forerunner materials and different solvents. After finish, the solvents evaporate as well as the perovskites crystallize to create a more or less homogeneous layer.
