Oxford PV has introduced perovskite-on-silicon tandem solar panels, which have recently entered commercial use. These panels are designed to significantly enhance the efficiency of solar energy conversion, achieving up to 24.5% module efficiency. By combining perovskite and silicon materials, Oxford PV’s technology delivers more power per square meter compared to traditional silicon-only panels, making solar energy more affordable and accessible.
The company’s innovative panels have been deployed in a utility-scale installation in the United States, marking a milestone in the commercialization of perovskite tandem solar technology. This advancement is expected to reduce the levelized cost of electricity (LCOE) and improve land-use efficiency by generating more electricity from the same area. Oxford PV’s commitment to high-efficiency solar solutions aligns with global efforts to accelerate the transition to clean energy and address climate change.
Oxford PV’s perovskite-on-silicon tandem solar panels are produced at their megawatt-scale pilot line in Brandenburg an der Havel, Germany. The company aims to scale production to gigawatt levels at a future high-volume manufacturing site. With a record-setting module efficiency of 26.9%, Oxford PV continues to push the boundaries of solar technology, contributing to the broader goal of achieving net-zero emissions and promoting sustainable energy solutions.
