@lylestavast7652منذ 3 سنوات Good intro on it. Regardless of what types, one of the larger expressed arguments against solar panels is the end of life treatment, fears of toxic waste id="hidden6" class="buttons"> - where it's going to go, water tables etc. maybe another video to make centers on the recycling of solar panels, potential mechanisms to do it high and low volumes, at low costs etc as part of the total life cycle. Same issue with batteries, which seem further ahead right now with companies like Redwood Materials and Li-cycle well into the game. Somehow, there needs to be a collection mechanism that bundles them up in a way that they can fill railroad cars or trucks with them and take to designated sites for reduction to primary materials again. I'd like to hear who is planning for an going after that sort of issue, what they expect to see as recovery and lost in process. thx. ....وسعت 5

@sjl3137منذ 2 سنوات I actually work with some perovskite cells, in their native state they are stupidly hard to work with because they are extremely fragile and does not stick id="hidden29" class="buttons"> to anything well. Spotweld cracks it, solder comes right off. The pure forms are actually available relatively cheaply (under 100USD for a stack of 50 10cm x 5cm rectangles) even on e-bay but at least 80% will have fracture on arrival.
These have a GREAT potential but as you mentioned, very few companies are packaging them but at a huge drop in efficiency. Right now the packaging is the biggest issue. Also one of the craziest advantage of perovskite cell is that it works fairly well when the piece is broken. ....وسعت

@humanistwriting5477منذ 3 سنوات Welll.
Very cool
I think tech that directly harvests solar energy into electricity has a constant issue, it always suffers from UV damage id="hidden33" class="buttons"> and electron migration ect, so a thin film tech like perovskite could see more widespread use even with a reduced lifespan because it can be easier to replace, becoming a simple chore done every few years with proper engineering. Something like a roller system with a stabilized paper leader just tape the new roll on, and crank the rollers till the old roll is off.
And that can give it an large market advantage if the costs are low enough and if there is a core trade in to further reduce costs and reclaim the gold used.
So perhaps it is far to soon to tell the future but in any future it seems this tech has a future at least in some applications. ....وسعت 2

I believe cheap local energy storage will be the next biggest advancement with solar. When you can store the energy from your own panels and use it at night the grid stops being a limiting factor. Energy grids are already suffering from capacity limits. Cheap long lasting batteries can overcome this problem.
Perovskite can still be great for people who don't have a lot of space to put panels. When you have plenty of space however a panel's efficiency doesn't matter much. Because then you don't install a certain surface of panels but a combined number of Watts (peak) to cover your daily energy needs. ....وسعت 1
