Developed by Tsutomu Miyasaka in 2009, perovskite solar cells emerged as a breakthrough in photovoltaics and a promising alternative to traditional solar technologies. The world’s most advanced labs ...

UNSW researchers boosted TOPCon solar cell efficiency by locally thinning the rear poly-Si layer, reducing parasitic absorption while preserving wafer integrity. The champion cell built with this ...

They've been successful because of their resilience and cost; however, they are heavier, more rigid, and less efficient than ...

Perovskite solar cells have garnered widespread attention as a low-cost, high-efficiency alternative to conventional silicon ...

Perovskite solar cells are a high-efficiency, low-cost alternative to traditional silicon-based solar panels. With the perovskite solar cell industry expected to reach $1.2 billion by 2033, there’s ...

When solar co-benefits are taken into account the economics are strong so we can expect solar energy systems to grow even ...

Topics include accelerating beyond module assembly to promote investment and creation of new wafer and cell capacity in the U.S. Figure: Ownership and location of factories producing solar cells for ...

A new study in Science shows that the incorporation of a synthetic molecule into the design enhances the energy efficiency and longevity of perovskite solar cells. The benefits of the molecule, known ...

Given the enormous long-term savings and environmental benefits, there's never been a bad time to install solar panels, but 2025 is shaping up to be an especially favorable year to take the plunge.

UNSW researchers developed an experimentally validated model linking UV-induced degradation in TOPCon solar cells to hydrogen transport, charge trapping, and permanent structural changes in the ...
