Oxford PV sets world record for perovskite solar cell

Oxford PV  - a spin-out from the laboratory of Professor Henry Snaith (Advsiory Board member of the TRS project) from the University of Oxford, recently achieved the highest ever performing single-junction silicon solar cell. Their 1 cm² perovskite-silicon tandem solar cell has achieved a 27.3% conversion efficiency, certified by the Fraunhofer Institute for Solar Energy Systems ISE. This exceeds the 26.7% efficiency world record for a single-junction silicon solar cell.

Oxford PV was established in 2010 as a spin-out from Professor Henry Snaith’s lab at the University of Oxford. Today, Oxford University still hold ownership stakes in Oxford PV. We also have the largest team globally, exclusively focused on developing and commercialising a perovskite based solar cell technology.
