MIT spinout Optigon aims to rev up the energy transition by using laser-based precision tools for measuring and tuning solar materials to dramatically speed up the optimization of photovoltaics.
Department of Energy Funding Boosts US-MAP Research into Perovskites
April 21, 2021
The U.S. Department of Energy has awarded $40 million to fund continuing research into perovskites, with much of the money going to facilities connected to a consortium led by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL).
The collaborative effort established at NREL two years ago called the U.S. Manufacturing of Advanced Perovskites Consortium (US-MAP) is a public-private effort involving laboratories, universities, and private industry. The consortium brings together leaders in perovskite research, development, and manufacturing, to reduce costs and minimize risks for potential investors.
The DOE funds support research and development efforts to advance perovskite photovoltaic

The military is adding fuel to the momentum of physicists at The University of Toledo who are advancing new frontiers in thin-film, highly efficient, low-cost photovoltaic technology to ensure a clean energy future.
The U.S. Air Force awarded UToledo $12.5 million to develop photovoltaic energy sheets that would live in space and harvest solar energy to transmit power wirelessly to Earth-based receivers or to other orbital or aerial instrumentation, such as communications satellites.

DALLAS, Jan. 27, 2021 /PRNewswire/ Hunt Perovskite Technologies (HPT) today announced the publication of its scientific article,
Improving Photostability of Caesium-Doped Formamidinium Lead Triiodide Perovskite, in the American Chemical Society (ACS) Energy Letters, a leading publisher of scientific journals. The article can be found online at https://pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/acsenergylett.0c02339.
This article was jointly written by HPT in collaboration with Colorado School of Mines and with the United States Department of Energy s National Renewable Energy Laboratory, both located in Golden, CO. This paper clearly demonstrates our early strategic decision to address the most critical issue to perovskite PV commercialization: fundamental durability, said Dr. Michael D. Irwin, chief technology officer for HPT. We are excited to share this peer-reviewed publication with the scientific community and are especially proud to have done
