Oxford PV releases teaser that promises "a new era" of solar technology
Oxford PV recently posted a cryptic message on its LinkedIn page, stating that: "Solar is about to enter a new era. Ready to see what’s next? We have some exciting news to share very soon....". Here's the video that followed this message:
We'll have to wait and see what Oxford PV's big news is, hopefully it'll have something to do with imminent commercialization of the Company's PSC technology. In June, Oxford PV announced a record-setting 26.9% efficiency for its double-glass, 60-cell “residential sized” perovskite tandem module at the Intersolar Europe 2024 event. The module reportedly has a surface area of a little over 1.6 m square meters (1m x 1.7m) and weighs a little under 25 kg. In January, a research team from the Fraunhofer Institute for Solar Energy Systems ISE reported a PV module using perovskite silicon tandem solar cells from Oxford PV with an efficiency of 25% and an out-put of 421 watts on an area of 1.68 square meters, stating it is a record efficiency for a silicon perovskite tandem solar module in industrial format.
