Advanced Silicon Photovoltaics

Novel cell architectures for crystalline silicon that improve efficiency by increasing the active area or adding absorbing layers.

LUX TAKE:

Continued growth in distributed PV where area is limited has maintained a demand for high-efficiency solar cells. Passivated emitter rear contact (PERC) cells are becoming the new commodity architecture, but new technologies offer another step up in improvement: Heterojunction (HJT) cells pioneered by Panasonic will see continued manufacturing expansions, while bifacial technology, being pushed by...
