Lightweight, flexible and semi-transparent perovskite photovoltaics could expand solar deployment across buildings, vehicles, agriculture and smart electronics. Solar energy is moving beyond conventional rooftops and utility-scale installations as next-generation photovoltaic technologies open up new opportunities for renewable power generation. While traditional silicon solar panels remain a proven solution, their weight, rigidity and opaque design can limit their use in certain buildings, vehicles and other applications. Perovskite photovoltaics (PV) offer an alternative, with the potential to transform previously unsuitable surfaces into energy-generating structures. According to IDTechEx’s report, Perovskite Photovoltaics 2027–2037: Technologies,…
