The Rise of Perovskite Solar Cells

Perovskite-based solar cells are gaining attention as a potential future of green energy. Companies like Oxford PV and Q-cells are developing tandem cells that combine Perovskite and silicon to achieve higher power output. Tandem cells offer at least 20% more power than silicon cells alone. However, challenges remain in terms of stability and degradation, as Perovskite cells perform less reliably than silicon when exposed to moisture, heat, and light. Despite these challenges, Perovskite proponents believe that if stability issues can be addressed, tandem cells could revolutionize the solar power market.
