Episode Notes: In today’s episode, we explore one of the most exciting breakthroughs in renewable energy: perovskite solar cells. These emerging photovoltaic technologies are being hailed as the next leap in solar power, with the potential to outperform traditional silicon panels in efficiency, cost, and versatility.

We’ll cover:

• What perovskite solar cells are — These use a unique crystal structure that absorbs sunlight more efficiently and can be processed at lower temperatures and costs than conventional silicon panels.
• Why they matter — Perovskite cells have reached efficiency levels in labs that rival or exceed silicon, and tandem designs combining perovskite with silicon could push performance even higher.
• Real-world applications and innovat ...
