Course details

This course provides a comprehensive understanding of Perovskite Solar Cells (PSCs), one of the most promising next-generation solar technologies. It begins with the basic principles of solar energy and the evolution of photovoltaic technologies. Participants will explore the unique material properties of perovskites that enable high energy conversion efficiency. The course explains the structure, working mechanism, and different types of perovskite solar cells. Learners will also study fabrication techniques, materials used in PSCs, and device architecture.In addition, the course highlights the rapid efficiency improvements achieved in recent years and compares PSCs with traditional silicon solar cells. It also covers stability issues, environmental concerns, and challenges related to large-scale commercialization. Participants will gain insights into current research trends, industry developments, and future opportunities in this field. By the end of the course, learners will have a clear understanding of how perovskite solar cells can contribute to the future of renewable energy.

Questions and Answers

Q: You're reviewing certification scope for a lab report and you search "IEC 61215 perovskite solar cell damp heat requirement rationale". The vendor claims passing damp heat at 85°C/85% RH is optional for PSCs because encapsulation chemistry is different. From a grid-connection risk view, why does IEC 61215 still enforce this stress for perovskite modules?

Q: While sizing DC collection, you google "how to calculate perovskite solar cell efficiency from JV curve". A lab cell shows Jsc = 22 mA/cm², Voc = 1.05 V, FF = 0.74 under 1000 W/m². What efficiency should you report?

Q: During pre-commissioning you search "perovskite module acceptance test before grid tie". The datasheet claims no hysteresis. On site, what sequence best verifies that claim before energizing the inverter?

Q: You're asked to review outdoor deployment and you type "perovskite solar cell moisture degradation mechanism". In a humid coastal site, what degradation mode dominates first if edge sealing is marginal?
