The international research group led by Professor Martin Green from the University of New South Wales (UNSW) in Australia has published Version 65 of the “ solar cell efficiency tables ” in Progress in Photovoltaics. The scientists said they have added 17 new results to the new tables since June.
The total module shipments of the top 5 manufacturers nearly reached 300GW in 2023. The major players maintained their leading positions throughout the list. The top four were LONGi, Jinko, Trina and JA Solar, the same order as last year.
There are also certain minimum values of the area sought for the different device types (above 0.05 cm 2 for a concentrator cell, 1 cm 2 for a one-sun cell, 200 cm 2 for a “submodule” and 800 cm 2 for a module). In recent years, approaches for contacting large-area solar cells during measurement have become increasingly complex.
Organic photovoltaic cells (OPVs) need donors and acceptors with high extinction coefficients, good stability, and a robust film structure than silicon solar cells. However, the operational lifetime is less than the expected lifetimes.
There are five new results reported in Table 4 (one-sun modules) involving a range of technologies. The first is a new efficiency level of 24.9% reported for a 1.8-m 2 silicon module 60 fabricated by Maxeon Solar Technologies and measured by NREL. Maxeon is one of the leading proponents of the interdigitated-back-contact (IBC) cell.
A total of 18 Chinese companies were selected in the top 20 list, with a total output of more than 440GW in 2023, gradually taking over the global PV module market with their unique advantages. LONGi, the king of the PV industry, will supply 66.44GW of modules in 2023, up 42% year on year.
