Trinasolar Sets New n-type Solar Cell Efficiency World Record of 27.08% Updated On Fri, Dec 27th, 2024 by Saurenergy Trinasolar has announced that its industrial larger-area n-type total passivation (TOPAS) solar cell, based on heterojunction (HJT or SHJ), has achieved 27.08% efficiency, setting a new record for front and back contact solar cells. This was confirmed by the Institute for Solar Energy Research in Hamelin, Germany. This is the first time that a crystalline […] Read more
Researchers sets New Record for Silicon-based Multi-junction Solar Cell with 30.2 Percent Efficiency Updated On Thu, Nov 10th, 2016 by Saurenergy Researchers at the Fraunhofer Institute for Solar Energy Systems ISE together with the Austrian company EV Group (EVG) has developed a silicon-based multi-junction solar cell with two contacts and record efficiency of 30.2 % exceeding theoretical limit of silicon solar cells. To achieve this efficiency, researchers used a “direct wafer bonding” process to transfer a […] Read more
