Indian scientists build 29.14%-efficient tandem solar cell with inverted top perovskite device

The researchers said they optimized the low-bandgap inverted perovskite cells through a passivating aluminum oxide (Al2O3) interlayer deposited via atomic layer deposition (ALD), which significantly helped improve device efficiency.

How to reconfigure PV modules in degraded solar plants

Indian scientists have developed six different strategies to reconfigure solar modules in degraded PV assets. Their analysis showed which conditions make the reconfiguration of an underperforming solar plant profitable.

Bifacial perovskite solar can achieve bifaciality of 90% when tilted at 20 degrees

IIT Bombay researchers have shown that bifacial perovskite solar cells can achieve a 2% higher power conversion efficiency with a tilt angle of 20 degrees. They also developed a bifacial perovskite solar cell for applications in both tandem or single-junction PV devices.
