Researchers working at the forefront of an emerging photovoltaic (PV) technology are thinking ahead about how to scale, deploy, and design future solar panels to be easily recyclable. Solar panels made of perovskites may eventually play an important role amid global decarbonization efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. As the … [continued]
The solar car of the future is already emerging, and Toyota could get a jump on the ball with new perovskite solar cells.
Oxford PV is bringing its tandem perovskite-silicon solar cells to the residential market, offering more power in a smaller footprint.
JinkoSolar, the global leading PV and ESS supplier, has announced a significant breakthrough in the development of its N-type TOPCon-based perovskite tandem solar cell. Tested by the Shanghai Institute of Microsystem and Information Technology, the cell achieved an impressive conversion efficiency of 33.24%. This enhancement surpasses JinkoSolar’s previous record of … [continued]
Perovskite solar cells are getting ready to make that giant leap from the lab bench to your rooftop array.
Scientists are mapping out the inner workings of the perovskite solar cell, leading to improvements in durability and stability.
First Solar has been around for, well, what seems like forever. It was founded in 1999, well before the solar boom took off and solar power became big business. Back then, there were all kinds of claims about how little solar power could ever contribute to the electricity supply. It … [continued]
Curiosity and Keen Observation Provide Insights for Next Generation of Thin-Film Solar Cells
By Wayne Hicks For Greg Glatzmaier, the road between innovation and implementation runs along a dusty stretch of highway about a dozen miles south of Boulder City, Nevada, where his patented idea could solve an industry problem. The destination for his idea is Nevada Solar One, an outpost in the … [continued]
Solar power costs have dropped to a record low — for the world, in all of history. However, we need them to go lower.
