Thin-Film

Researchers at the Solar Energy Research Institute of Singapore (SERIS) have claimed a record 26.4% conversion efficiency in a perovskite-organic tandem cell.

Swedish thin-film solar manufacturer Midsummer signed a 15MW order for a turnkey thin-film solar cells production line.

Australia’s University of Queensland has claimed a new world-record efficiency for a tin halide perovskite solar cell, certified at 16.65%.

Swedish thin-film solar cell company Midsummer has been awarded €2.8 million to research tandem perovskite cell technology.

Thin-film solar manufacturer First Solar has decided to reduce its module production output in Malaysia and Vietnam for a combined 1GW in 2025.

Risen said the cell was certified by the Chinese National Photovoltaic Product Quality Supervision and Inspection Center.

Researchers in Japan have undertaken a comprehensive study to test the degradation of perovskite solar cells in extreme heat and humidity.

The report said that tandem modules need a minimum efficiency of 25% to be competitive with other solar technologies on price.

The plans say the company intends to build a 100MW production line for “lightweight and flexible perovskite solar cells” by 2027.

The 28.6% efficiency rating was certified by the CalLab at the Fraunhofer Institute for Solar Energy Systems (ISE).
