Perovskite PV Accelerator for Commercializing Technologies

The PACT center focuses on developing a fair and level playing field for the emerging perovskite PV industry by: Developing, testing and validating characterization protocols that can quantify module performance and accurately measure power loss and degradation. Developing accelerated testing protocols that can predict and identify early failures (5-10 years) and degradation rates. Monitoring outdoor performance from fielded perovskite PV prototype mini-modules and modules and developing energy yield models that can predict performance in different climates. Offering start-up guidance and bankability services to US perovskite PV companies in order to help them scale up from R&D cells to high-volume module manufacturing.
