Why perovskite?
Decarbonizing the world's power supply is the biggest challenge of our times. By transitioning our society to renewable energies, Earth will become a better place to live on.
Silicon solar cells are reaching their maximum efficiency. We aim to improve the technology and eventually exceed it. Perovskite solar cells have the potential of a low energy payback time of only several months due to their low-temperature processability. They can be easily recycled by separately dissolving the different layers that make up the solar module. The materials in our perovskite solar cells are also abundantly available.
Our large-scale printing facility will be able to produce several kilometers of solar cells per day.
