Perovskite solar cells (PSCs) have recently emerged as so called “third generation solar cells” which have been universally promoted as an economically and environmentally viable renewable technology option to traditional solar cells technologies for addressing global challenges in energy generation, security and environmental impact .
Perovskite solar cells are the main option competing to replace c-Si solar cells as the most efficient and cheap material for solar panels in the future. Perovskites have the potential of producing thinner and lighter solar panels, operating at room temperature.
Perovskite solar cell technology also far surpasses every other thin-film option in its cost. Regular thin-film photovoltaics cost around $0.40 to $0.69 per watt, while GaAs technology has a cost of $50 per watt.
This knowledge transfer is timely, as the development of metal halide perovskites is helping to unite previously disparate, technology-focused strands of PV research. Nearly all types of solar photovoltaic cells and technologies have developed dramatically, especially in the past 5 years.
However, one of the major setbacks that perovskite solar cell technology faces is the lifespan of the cells. The c-Si solar cell technology is a matured technology achieving lifespans of up to 30 years, while perovskite solar panels barely last 30 months in the best of cases, currently making it impractical for most real-world applications.
Perovskites have the potential of producing thinner and lighter solar panels, operating at room temperature. In this article, we will do an in-depth analysis of this promising technology being researched by the solar industry.
