The School of Basic Sciences at the Swiss Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne (EPFL) recommends transparent phosphate salt as a restrainer for lead from halide perovskite solar cells from getting absorbed by the soil when the solar panel stops working, breaks or gets wet.
EPFL Study Recommends Solar & Wind In Swiss Alps
‘Provocative’ Optimal Scenario Suggested By EPFL: 75% New Wind & 25% Solar Power Capacity In Switzerland’s Alpine Region ‘Most Effective’ Way For Country To Become Carbon Neutral & Energy Self-Sufficient
If Switzerland can establish new capacity in a ratio of 75% wind power and 25% solar power in its alpine regions, it would be the most effective way for the country to become carbon neutral and energy self-sufficient, according to the optimal scenario suggested in a Swiss university, Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne (EPFL) study.
Lab Testing For Perovskite In Real-World Conditions
Scientists At EPFL Switzerland Create Real-World Operating Conditions To Test Perovskite Solar Cells & Find No ‘Dramatic’ Difference In Energy Yield Of Devices During Day Time
Differences in temperature and irradiance variations in no ‘dramatic’ ways adversely impact the performance of perovskite solar cells. Even though the efficiency of the cells may come down slightly during the day, it recovers during night.
