Chinese perovskite solar developer, Shanghai Xuli Perovskite New Energy Co., Ltd. (Perovskite Energy), together with Fudan University, Shanghai Jiao Tong University, and the Yangtze River Delta Solar PV Technology Innovation Center, won a bid for a project titled Key Technology Research on Lightweight Perovskite/Crystalline Silicon Tandem Solar Modules for Satellites.
The initiative is part of the 2025 Technical Standards program under the Key Technology R&D Plan led by the Shanghai Science and Technology Commission.
The project will focus on high-efficiency, stable perovskite top cells and ultra-thin, high-efficiency crystalline silicon solar cells, while further exploring material and structural optimization of tandem cell layers, metallization, and advanced encapsulation technologies.
The goal is to establish a MW-scale demonstration line for lightweight perovskite/crystalline silicon tandem modules for application in satellites.
