NEXUS will accelerate Europe’s transition to clean energy by development of perovskite-Si tandem photovoltaics, via a new European paradigm: a global eco-design approach based on efficiency, cost, sustainability, circularity and social aspects, using abundant materials in the whole value chain. Our innovations will improve the PV Energy Yield per area, using sustainable, coherent and competitive European PV production, guaranteeing a clean energy transition and ensuring a secure and affordable EU energy supply.
NEXUS will develop stable, 2-terminal perovskite-Si tandem solar cells with power conversion efficiencies >33% (modules >30%) and stabilities like state of the art single junction Silicon PV modules. We will develop these challenging targets following an innovative eco-design approach: employing solvent-free perovskite deposition, circularity, recyclability, improved simple manufacturing processes, to create a viable economic pathway for the European commercialization of this sustainable technology.
