Silicon solar cells were supposed to be running out of headroom, yet a new device has pushed their performance to 27.81% efficiency and reset expectations for what a single-junction cell can do. That ...

Free charge carriers in perovskite solar cells likely have a special form of protection from recombination, researchers have discovered. This may be key to the high efficiency of this cell type, which ...

Solar energy is no longer just a clean alternative; it’s becoming a cornerstone of the global energy system. In 2026, high ...

An international research group led by the Indian Institute of Technology Bombay has developed a four-terminal (4T) tandem solar cell based on a top cell with a perovskite absorber and a bottom device ...

Researchers in China have investigated the impact of phosphorus diffusion gettering on industrial silicon heterojunction solar cell and have found that, with an optimized gas flow, higher efficiencies ...

VTT researchers developed a roll-to-roll (R2R) production process involving flexible minimodules, in tandem with a team from TNO. Image: PEARL Consortium. European research initiative the PEARL ...

What if the future of solar energy wasn’t just brighter but fundamentally redefined? Imagine a world where solar panels are not only more efficient but also cheaper, more durable, and adaptable to ...
