Dye-sensitized solar thin-film specialist, Dyesol has claimed a 15% increase in the efficiency performance of large DSC strip cells has been achieved, bringing industrial DSC efficiency up from 6.9% to 8% in 2011. The increase in efficiency results were said to come from improvements in materials and structural design elements.

Dyesol noted in a presentation to German investors last week that its had a roadmap of known improvements that would take conversion efficiencies past 8.5% by April 2012.

The company also noted that it expected to initiate the transfer of recent advances in glass-glass sealing technology in the first quarter of 2011 that is claimed to lead to improved durability of the product, an inherent weakness of flexible thin film products.

    Photovoltaics International 16th Edition

    This sixteenth edition of Photovoltaics International marks four years of production of the quarterly journal. As always, our focus is on efficiency and quality improvement and cost reduction in manufacturing. As 2012 rolls along, companies are falling by the wayside due to supply and demand issues, ASP declines and drastic governmental subsidy cuts. A clear picture of 2012 is offered through papers from the likes of TÜV Rheinland, Fraunhofer ISE, SEMI PV Group and EPIA, amongst others.
