Transparent Solar Panels Record Efficiency

Researchers used an organic carbon based design of solar panels that led to this incredible breakthrough.

Transparent solar panels record efficiency.

A team from the university of michigan said they had also achieved 43 3 per cent transparency with their organic carbon based design rather than using conventional silicon. Solar panels are mostly made of silicon. In a step closer to skyscrapers that serve as power sources a team led by university of michigan researchers has set a new efficiency record for color neutral transparent solar cells. They broke the previous efficiency record and hit the all time high of 8 1 efficiency.

Rather than using silicon researchers from the university of michigan developed an organic carbon based design that hit a record breaking efficiency of 8 with a 43 3 transparency. The team achieved 8 1 efficiency and 43 3 transparency with an organic or carbon based design rather than conventional silicon. Transparent solar panels that could one day be used to generate renewable energy from buildings have reached a record breaking efficiency of 8 per cent researchers have said. In a step closer to skyscrapers that serve as power sources a team led by university of michigan researchers has set a new efficiency record for color neutral transparent solar cells.
