Details

Renewable energy is a key driver for the EU's transition away from fossil fuels, with solar power playing a crucial role. Perovskite solar cells (PSCs) are gaining attention due to their low cost and impressive power conversion efficiency of 25.7%. However, scaling up their performance from lab-scale to large-area applications remains a significant challenge. The EU-funded PERSEUS project aims to bridge this gap by developing three large-area PSC architectures tailored for industries such as floating photovoltaics, building-integrated photovoltaics, agriphotovoltaics, and urban photovoltaics.

PERSEUS will create three distinct PSC module types: single-junction opaque modules, semi-transparent modules, and 4-terminal tandem modules combining perovskite with CIGS technology. These solutions will cater to diverse end-user needs and be converted into detailed blueprints for multi-stage manufacturing. By validating these designs, the project aims to enable seamless commercialization and large-scale production, promoting Europe's leadership in advanced solar technology. The project consortium making this happen is detailed here.
