Efficiency of Perovskite Solar Cells above 20%

The Korean Research Institute of Chemical Technology (KRICT) has fabricated the first Perovskite Solar Cell with efficiency higher than 20 %. An exact value of 20.1 % has been certified by the NREL and it now appears in the updated efficiency chart. This new efficiency increase situates Perovskites very close to some of the Crystalline Silicon technologies, CdTe and CIGS solar cells.
