A tandem photovoltaic module made of crystalline silicon and perovskite achieved a power output of 900 W and an efficiency of 29,2% in total area, as verified by TÜV SÜD, a global testing, inspection and certification institution. The module was developed by Trina Solar.

According to the manufacturer, Tandem modules made of crystalline silicon and perovskite are among the most promising technologies to drive the next generation of photovoltaic solar energy.

To achieve this result, the R&D (Research and Development) team worked on improving the uniformity of the perovskite thin films, enhancing the interfacial passivation solutions, and optimizing the spectral absorption of the Tandem structures.

According to the company, the module's power output evolved from 808 W to 907 W in just over a year, using a standardized industrial production base. This advancement demonstrates the scalability and commercialization potential of the technology.

Unlike laboratory records (which are tested in small square centimeter cells), the company's module was validated on a standard industrial-sized panel measuring 3,1 square meters, marking the first time a module of this technology has surpassed the 900 W barrier in mass production specifications.

    I'd like to know the value and weight, and if it won't lift too much.

  • Dario Gueiros

    Excellent progress.
    I keep thinking about the dimensions and weight of the panels, which could impact installation on roofs by small installers. Will they be manufactured in smaller dimensions, but with the same efficiency?

  • Wanderson Augusto

    In my opinion, we are still in the very early stages when it comes to solar panels. It is urgently necessary to think about a future where obtaining solar energy will not occupy the space that these gigantic solar panels currently have to occupy to obtain energy. By employing existing mathematical solutions, we can achieve an even greater level of energy production, occupying a much smaller space. I pose this challenge to the solar energy sector. If you want to know how this process would become viable, just talk to me.

    1,25 x 2,50 with 50 kilos or more
    The 700-liter one weighs 42 kilos; we'll have to fill it up on the roofs.

    This is truly a major step forward for the future of PV energy. It remains to be seen whether the increased cost will affect the return on investment…

    I liked the progress! Is it already available for sale? In Curitiba and the coast of Paraná?

  • Leticia Souza

    BIZARRE! Until recently, 340W dominated the market… now the conversation is already at 900W. And inverters will have to struggle to keep up with this evolution.
