A major advance in fabrication of low-cost solar cells also locks up greenhouse gases. Engineers have created a means of vastly increasing the speed and efficiency of a key doping process for perovskite solar cells, while sequestering CO2. These cells have progressed in recent years with rapid increases in power conversion efficiency (from 3% in 2006 to 25.5% today), making them more competitive with silicon-based photovoltaic cells. And that’s about where my ability to understand the process ends. Check the link to see if you can figure it out. Regardless, it appears to be good news.
