Perovskite: The 'wonder material' that could transform solar power.

According to proponents of this "wonder material", perovskite panels promise to cheaply boost the energy generated by solar farms and rooftops, and could work far better than silicon panels on satellites and electric cars.

But it all depends on how they hold up in the real world.

#SBSP Recent breakthroughs include self-healing #SolarPanels ☀️ that can maintain their efficiency for tens to hundreds of years. A new efficiency record broke the theoretical limit of 33.7 per cent 📈. The first production of ultra-efficient perovskite solar panels could begin in China 🇨🇳. #UK 🇬🇧 startup #OxfordPV is already in the process of commercialising the technology, with hopes of beginning full-scale production at a German 🇩🇪 facility later this year https://www.independent.co.uk/tech/solar-panel-world-record-perovskite-energy-b2445026.html

#OxfordPV named Most Cutting-Edge Solution in Power and Energy at E&T Innovation Awards 2022

..The company puts a thin layer of its unique #perovskite solar absorber #material on the top of standard #silicon solar cells to convert significantly more of the sun’s #energy into #electricity. The resulting ‘tandem’ solar cells are incorporated into conventional #solar panels to generate more power and can reduce the cost of solar energy...
