Solar Panels In India – II
Solar Panels In India – II
Tandem solar cells made In india for the highest possible efficiency.
A team at the National Centre for Photovoltaic Research and Education (NCPRE) at the Indian Institute of Technology Bombay (IITB) has fabricated a novel semi-transparent perovskite solar cell (PSC) and, by combining it with a silicon-based solar cell, has demonstrated an efficiency of more than 26% for such a cell.
The team at IIT Bombay has overcome the stability issue by combining their PSC with a silicon solar cell in what is called a tandem configuration. Combining the two different types of solar cells allows the device to convert more of the light falling on it into electricity. Apart from the higher efficiency, the tandem architecture also provides greater stability to the device, while driving its overall lifetime costs low. [1]
ART-PV India is a mission-driven dynamic startup co-founded by Prof. Dinesh Kabra of IIT Bombay, Mumbai in 2024. A proof of concept is being prepared for Tandem Solar cell technology under National Centre for Photovoltaic Research & Education (NCPRE). The startup is backed by industry partners in crystalline and thin-film technologies and NCPRE – Ministry of new and renewable energy ( MNRE). [2]
