PP3: Tandem Solar Cells
Anita Ho-Baillie, Xiaojing Hao, Greg Wilson, Klaus Weber
Tandem cell technologies offer demonstrated prospects of delivering a step change in cell and module efficiency to 30% and beyond. Work in Program Package 3 will focus on bringing together the silicon cell and emerging materials programs in tandem solar cells. The activities will take concepts beyond the research scale, to address the known challenges of combining stable, low-cost, non-toxic and abundant materials in a manufacturable, durable, high efficiency tandem structure. The program targets a commercial tandem cell technology delivering 30% efficiency by 2030.
