That potentially makes the.
Silicon spray on solar panels.
It took 77 years to go from the 1 efficiency of the first solar panel ever invented to the creation of a 14 efficiency panel in 1960.
If a solar panel s more valuable components namely the silicon and silver could be separated and purified efficiently that could improve that cost to revenue ratio.
Right now solar paint is not as efficient as silicon based solar panels and this is the single major hurdle researchers must surmount before solar paint is commercially viable.

For perovskite technology to become viable the efficiency of the cells needs to increase.
Silicon solar carries a complete line of the industry s best most efficient solar panels.
The spray on solar cells developed by the university of sheffield have achieved an efficiency of 11.
Uc merced has partnered with nasa on a unique project.
Spray on solar panel efficiency current commercial photovoltaic pv solar technologies rely on solar cells that are made of silicon that s been coated with a thin layer of silicon nitrate the silicon nitrate works as an anti reflective material to increase the cell s sunlight collecting efficiency.

The future of spray on solar.
That s still well behind silicon solar cells which can reach up to 25 efficiency.
Unlike silicon based photovoltaic pv cells perovskite cells are soluble in a variety of solvents so can be easily sprayed on to a surface similar to inks or paints.
