Research Team from Princeton University Improves the Durability of Perovskite Solar Cells
Researchers from Princeton Universitys Engineering School developed the first perovskite solar cell with a commercial viable lifetime. Perovskites (PSCs) are lightweight and flexible semiconductors with a crystalline structure. Between 2009 and 2022, research has helped increase the efficiency of perovskite solar cells from 3% to over 25%. Perovskite solar cells are currently unavailable on the commercial market due to their fragility and lack of long-term durability.
FERC Releases Plan to Expedite the Connection of Solar Projects to the Energy Grid
The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) released a plan that would expedite the connection of solar, wind, and battery projects to the energy grid. Long wait times for projects to connect to the grid and high grid upgrading costs, according to Canary Media, are currently preventing hundreds of gigawatts of clean energy projects from being connected to grids. These challenges have posed significant obstacles for the development of renewable energy projects around the country.
