Perovskite solar technology shows quick energy returns

Monday, July 20, 2015 - 14:00 in Physics & Chemistry

In the solar power research community, a new class of materials called perovskites is causing quite a buzz, as scientists search for technology that has a better 'energy payback time' than the silicon-based solar panels currently dominating the market. Now, a new study reports that perovskite modules are better than any commercially available solar technology when products are compared on the basis of energy payback time.
