Solar Technology & PV R&D News

KAUST researchers conduct tests to determine accuracy of temperature coefficient metric for perovskite-silicon tandem solar cells. Results show external quantum efficiency, bandgap, local solar spectrum, and operating temperature range all influence assessment. Research team unable to predict changes in tandem cells under outdoor conditions. Findings could help community better understand outdoor data and improve tandem cell efficiency.

This revolutionary technology by the University of Cambridge helps convert carbon dioxide, plastic waste, and industrial exhaust into sustainable fuels and valuable chemicals. Reduce emissions and eliminate reliance on oil and gas with the carbon dioxide utilization for a zero-carbon future.

Discover how an international team successfully designed a highly-efficient perovskite solar cell with an ETL made of indium sulfide (In2S3). Read the article to find out more.

LONGi achieves world-leading conversion efficiency of 33.5%, leading the charge in photovoltaic industry growth and development. Discover how the company is pushing the boundaries of what’s possible.

CubicPV is now looking to build a 10GW US silicon wafer manufacturing base, and to continue its research into perovskite-silicon tandem technology.

Researchers have developed an all-perovskite tandem solar cell with a power conversion efficiency of 28.5%, open-circuit voltage of 2.112 V, and stabilized efficiency of 28.0%. Teams from Nanjing University, University of Science and Technology of China and Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) were involved.

Scientists from CNR-IMM, CNR-IPCB, CNR-NANOTEC, Università Degli Studi di Messina and also the University of Basel have revealed that lead leak can be prevented by using a transparent titanium dioxide (TiO2) sponge in a semitransparent solar cell. The gadget has demonstrated similar effectiveness to semi-transparent perovskite tools as well as has an average visible transmittance (AVT) of 31.4%.

Researchers from Purdue University, University of California and also the University of Kentucky have actually created a new perovskite interlayer that supposedly exhibits both superior thermal and also moisture stability in ambient conditions.

Scientists from Nanjing Tech University, Wuhan University of Technology and also National University of Singapore set out to attend to 2 significant issues that should be fixed in order to promote perovskite solar cells (PSCs): condition condensation of perovskite as well as out of balance interface cost extraction, which limit more enhancements in device effectiveness.

Perovskite-silicon tandem solar cells guarantee efficiencies of over 30 percent, as well as it appears that new globe efficiency worths are gotten to in an increasing rate.

When it involves providing energy for space exploration and settlements, commonly offered solar cells made of silicon or gallium arsenide are still too hefty to be probably delivered by rocket.

An international group of scientists from Fritz Haber Institute of the Max Planck Society, École Polytechnique in Paris, Columbia University in New York, as well as the Free University in Berlin have actually demonstrated laser-driven control of fundamental motions of the lead halide perovskite (LHP) atomic lattice.

It was reported that on May 24, at the 16th (2023) International Solar Photovoltaic and Smart Energy (Shanghai) Event (SNEC), LONGi Green Energy Technology introduced its "STAR Innovative Ecological Cooperation Platform" and also its newly accomplished performance of 31.8% for perovskite/crystalline silicon tandem solar cells based upon industrial CZ silicon wafers.

A project from Oklahoma State University was picked to receive a $750,000 grant from NASA.
