Researchers created a flexible perovskite solar cell material that stays stable in humidity, enabling low-cost, high-efficiency production in ambient air.

Firms commercializing perovskite–silicon ‘tandem’ photovoltaics say that the panels will be more efficient and could lead to cheaper electricity.

Silicon solar cells are the backbone of the world’s solar-generated electricity, accounting for about 95 per cent of the solar cells in the photovoltaic market. As manufacturing and power ...

In January, KAUST announced it fabricated a perovskite-perovskite-silicon triple-junction solar cell with a power conversion efficiency of 26.4%.
