Researchers in China claim to have built a perovskite solar cell that can effictively reduce ion migration and offer superior stability. The device utilizes an ultrathin membrane made of a polymeric material known as PDTBT2T-FTBDT (D18), which reportedly offers conformal coverage on the surface of perovskite film due to its high fluidity.
Japanese plastics manufacturer Sekisui Chemical is investing in a 100 MW production line to make lightweight perovskite solar panels for low load-bearing rooftops, with an operational start in 2027. It will also acquire a production facility from Japanese electronics manufacturer Sharp.
New research from India has shown that bifacial perovskite solar cells can achieve a 2% higher power conversion efficiency with a tilt angle of 20 degrees. The scientists also developed a bifacial perovskite solar cell for applications in both tandem or single-junction PV devices.
Waaree Energies says it has agreed to support IIT Bombay in creating an advanced fabrication and characterization setup to develop high-efficiency perovskite solar cells.
GCL Perovskite says it has obtained nearly CNY 500 million ($68 million) of funding from several Chinese investors to make perovskite-silicon modules.
MicroQuanta, a Chinese perovskite solar specialist, has commissioned a 8.2 MW PV facility based on its 90 W perovskite panels in eastern China.
An international research team has fabricated a perovskite solar cell using sulfur-based additives to improve its resistance to moisture. The device not only achieved high efficiency levels but was also able to retain about 96% of its efficiency after 1,000 h.
The Japanese government says it expects perovskite solar modules to be produced in large quantities at JPY 20 ($0.13)/W by 2025, JPY 14/W by 2030, and JPY 10/W by 2040.
Scientists in China have conceived a perovskite solar cell that uses a back mirror based on silver to improve light harvesting. The device could reportedly achieved a power conversion efficiency of over 27%.
The Korea Research Institute of Chemical Technology (KRICT) has set a world record for power conversion efficiency at 20.6% for large-area perovskite solar cells exceeding 200 cm². The result, confirmed by Germany’s Fraunhofer Institute for Solar Energy Systems ISE (Fraunhofer ISE), marks a significant milestone in solar cell technology.
