Thin-film technology plays a crucial role in combating climate change. The Mads Clausen Institute at SDU in Sønderborg is a world leader in organic solar cell research and has just set up a brand new research centre, CAPE, to make ultra-thin, flexible and transparent solar cells an integral part of our everyday lives and an important part of the green transition. At the same time, the centre's expertise and experience will be used in the research and development of energy storage and green hydrogen technologies.
While the efficiency of solar cells will always be important, scaling innovation in sustainable cell technology and solar deployment, is the new game in town. With hydrogen exports and production of green metals in its sights, Australia has some breakthrough tech coming down the pike, as <b>pv magazine Australia</b>’s <b>Natalie Filatoff</b> reports.
Researchers at Oxford University and Exciton Science have demonstrated a new way to create stable perovskite solar cells, with fewer defects and the potential to rival silicon’s durability.
