The translation of perovskite solar cells to large-area devices fabricated by industry-relevant manufacturing methods remains a critical challenge. Here, authors report solar modules with serially-interconnected cells produced entirely by industrial roll-to-roll printing under ambient conditions.
I think that’s a big if. With their (generally) shorter life expectancy they have to be half to a third of the cost of silicon panels to break even on a 20yr panel life. And that’s not including the labor to replace them.
