Perovskite solar cells – Promises and expectations for the third-generation PV technologyOctober 21, 2019Since their invention 10 years ago, perovskite solar cells (PSCs) have shown a dramatic increase in conversion efficiency compared with other so-called third-generation solar cells. In 2018, some laboratory tests found that a single-junction PSC cell could reach up to 23% efficiency. Its technology has benefited from developments carried out for dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSC) and organic solar cells (OSC), also called organic photovoltaic (OPV) cells.

PV inverter suppliers develop digital energy solutionsJanuary 26, 2018SMA announced last week that it would set up a digital energy solution subsidiary named Coneva, a move that is a natural stepping stone to diversifying its business and expanding its customer base. Along with its existing business units such as energy storage, off-grid/hybrid and now a digital solutions company, it has a clear roadmap for 2018 to transition its business to a digital world. This move is particularly pertinent when the PV inverter competitive landscape is still crowded and pure-play PV inverter suppliers such as SMA are trying to gain a competitive advantage over its larger industrial competitors such as ABB, GE, Siemens, Schneider Electric and Huawei. In this insight, IHS Markit aims to explain the meaning behind this move to establish a subsidiary and why they are launching it in Q1 2018.Subscribers Only

Photovoltaic Industry to Enjoy Robust Installation Growth in 2013, but Revenue Dip Poses ChallengesJanuary 25, 2013Global photovoltaic (PV) installations will rise this year in a continuing pattern of solid growth, but the industry will nonetheless suffer a decline in overall revenue due to lower volume growth and decreasing system prices, according to an IHS Solar white paper from information and analytics provider IHS (NYSE: IHS).
PV installations are projected to reach 35 gigawatts (GW) this year, up from 32 GW in 2012, as shown in the attached figure. In comparison, industry revenue—measured as the system price multiplied by total gigawatts installed—will retreat to an estimated $75 billion, down from $77 billion last year, and exhibiting an even steeper fall from the market’s peak revenue of $94 billion in 2011.
