Abstract


The Perovskite Enabled Tandems (PET) Core Program at the National Laboratory of the Rockies aims to address the critical challenges in the manufacturability and stability of metal halide perovskite-enabled tandem photovoltaic (PV) systems. Tandem PV technologies offer a pathway to surpass the performance of single-junction devices, providing a promising avenue for electricity generation. However, accurate energy yield predictions for tandem modules are essential to assess their commercial viability. Current energy yield models for single junction PV devices, which include widely-used commercial software and open-source platforms, are not sufficient for tandem modules due to the unique dependencies on electrical and optical coupling between subcells and the influence of spectrum. We will discuss how NLR’s PET Core is combining advanced device fabrication, packaging, and modeling approaches to develop and validate  accurate energy yield predictions for perovskite-based tandem modules.
