According to the agreement, the two parties will jointly build the world's first fully closed-loop perovskite-crystalline silicon tandem experimental line of "AI decision-making-robot execution-data feedback". Relying on Jinko Solar's photovoltaic R&D knowledge and XtalPi's unique advantages in fields like quantum physics algorithms, AI prediction models and large-scale robotic automated experiments, the focus will be on creating high-efficiency and high-stability perovskite tandem solar cells.
This move marks an alliance between two leaders in different technology fields, officially launching in-depth collaboration in next-generation photovoltaic technologies such as perovskite tandem, aiming to reshape the photovoltaic R&D paradigm through "AI + robotics" and accelerate the R&D and industrialization of disruptive technologies.
Based on the solid technological foundation and cooperation plan of both parties, Jinko Solar expects that perovskite tandem solar cells will move towards mass production in the next three years or so.
