Intrinsic performance loss rate: Decoupling reversible and irreversible losses for an improved assessment of photovoltaic system performance

Christophe Ballif, Alessandro Francesco Aldo Virtuani, Hugo James André Quest

Solar electricity is set to play a pivotal role in future energy systems. In view of a market that may soon reach the terawatt (TW) scale, a careful assessment of the performance of photovoltaic (PV) systems becomes critical. Research on PV fault detection ...

Balancing DSO interests and PV system economics with alternative tariffs

Christophe Ballif, Alejandro Pena Bello, Robin Junod

Distributed rooftop photovoltaics (PV) is one of the pillars of the energy transition yet their widespread integration strains grids, leading to over-voltage, reverse power flow, and infrastructure strain. Furthermore, increased PV self-consumption reduces ...

CNT-based bifacial perovskite solar cells towards highly efficient 4-terminal tandem photovoltaics

Michael Graetzel, Shaik Mohammed Zakeeruddin, Fan Fu, Hongwei Zhu, Chunyang Zhang

Carbon-based perovskite solar cells (C-PSCs) are recognized as low-cost stable photovoltaics. However, currently most highly efficient C-PSCs are optically opaque, which means that they can only utilize direct illumination but cannot efficiently utilize th ...

Worldwide performance evaluation of ground surface reflectance models

Christophe Ballif, Pierre-Jean Alet, Arttu Matias Tuomiranta

To improve the accuracy of bifacial gain estimation, recent radiative models of solar energy systems have abandoned the traditional assumption of isotropic ground-reflected radiance. However, surface reflectance itself is still commonly considered as a con ...

Xanthan-Based Hydrogel for Stable and Efficient Quasi-Solid Truly Aqueous Dye-Sensitized Solar Cell with Cobalt Mediator

Fabrizio Giordano, Ulf Anders Hagfeldt, Guido Viscardi

Aqueous dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) are emerging as a promising alternative to enhance both the lifetime and environmental friendliness of traditional DSSCs. Herein, a cobalt-based, jellified (with xanthan gum) aqueous electrolyte, leading to a valu ...

Side-chain engineering of PEDOT derivatives as dopant-free hole-transporting materials for efficient and stable n-i-p structured perovskite solar cells

Xiaoqing Jiang, Ulf Anders Hagfeldt

Low-cost poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) and its derivatives have been widely used as hole-transporting materials (HTMs) in p-i-n perovskite solar cells (PSCs). However, reports on the use of PEDOT-based HTMs in regular PSCs have been rather limit ...
