“To get to the efficiency limit of silicon, there are a few little obstacles that need to be overcome, but aren’t fully appreciated yet,” said Martin Green. Image: PV Tech.
Innovations in wafer sophistication and advances in cell output voltage will be key developments in the upstream solar industry, if the world is to realise the potential of solar power.
This was a takeaway from Martin Green, scientia professor at the University of New South Wales in Australia, who spoke to PV Tech during last month’s SNEC conference in China. Green, a leading voice in the solar sector since his work on passivated emitter rear cell (PERC) technology in the 1980s, told PV Tech that, while technological boundaries still exist for modern cell technologies, there is cause for optimism in the upstream sector.
