An international research team has conducted an extensive review of all back-contact (BC) solar cell types in an effort to accelerate their commercial development. The scientists grouped the cell ...

Scientists have found a way to make perovskite solar cells not only highly efficient but also remarkably stable, addressing ...

In a new scientific paper published in nature, the Chinese manufacturer presented a new tandem perovskite-silicon solar cell based on a bottom cell with a heterojunction design. It also used a new ...

Combining two semiconductor thin films into a tandem solar cell can achieve high efficiencies with a minimal environmental footprint. Teams have now presented a CIGS-perovskite tandem cell that sets a ...

Chinese solar module maker Longi has presented a new tandem perovskite-silicon solar cell with a 34.58% power conversion efficiency. The cell incorporates a new material designed to reduce passivating ...

Perovskites may sound like perogies or piroshkis, but no high-carb-cheese-and-potato-flavor-pocket can do what they do. They’re minerals that can do the same party trick as many of your favorite ...

The race is on to commercialise perovskite PV technologies. Image: Dennis Scroeder/NREL. Although perovskite-based technologies offer the promise of high efficiencies and low costs, the route to their ...

In a study published in Nature, researchers at Linköping University have developed a method to recycle all parts of a solar cell repeatedly without environmentally hazardous solvents. The recycled ...

What if the future of solar energy wasn’t just about harnessing sunlight, but doing so with unprecedented efficiency, affordability, and durability? Imagine a world where solar panels not only ...

This year has seen the race to market for perovskite-based PV modules heat up with the first commercial shipment announced. Will Norman asks if mass-scale deployment of perovskite technology is now ...
