Topic

Thin film PV technology based on perovskite absorbers has been identified as the most promising solar technology for energy har-vesting due to its high efficiency, low energy impact during fabrication as well as poten-tially low production cost. The yearly num-ber of publications exceeding one thousand in 2015 witnesses the formidable research effort dedicated to this rising technology. Industrial efforts to realize technological implementation are however still at the be-ginning leaving a rather untouched field for tomorrow’s manufacturers. This workshop is aimed at gaining insight into the vision, strategies and development track of the most advanced players in the field of large area module manufacturers.

Target Audience

With the workshop we intend to update and inform present and future stakeholders and gather persons willing to support this fasci-nating endeavour.

Scientists and Engineers in the field of solar cells as well as industrialists and investors being interested in this rising field.

NRP 70  – PV 2050 Framework

According to the energy strategy of the Swiss Government, photovoltaics (PV) should be-come a major electricity source by 2050. The National Research Program (NRP) of the Swiss National Science Foundation supports development of technologies with lowered cost, improved building integration and pro-motes market penetration.
