Caelux & CubicPV Mark Solar Milestones: First Commercial Shipment & World Record Efficiency
Caelux has marked a significant milestone with its first commercial shipment of Active Glass technology, while CubicPV has set a new world record for perovskite solar module efficiency. These advancements signal promising developments in solar energy.
Caelux, a solar technology company, has completed its first commercial customer order shipment of Active Glass technology. This innovative product is set to be used on a utility-scale project in tandem with a silicon solar module, promising enhanced performance.
In a separate development, CubicPV, in collaboration with the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL), has achieved a world-record efficiency of 24% for a perovskite mini solar module. This breakthrough, according to CubicPV's CTO, brings perovskite devices closer to market readiness.
Caelux's Active Glass technology claims to offer substantial improvements, including up to 30% more power density and 20% more energy production, along with up to 20% lower project costs compared to mainstream silicon modules.
While Swift Solar has not yet revealed its current planning timeline for establishing a large-scale production line in the USA, the company aims to reach gigawatt-scale production of perovskite solar cells by 2030. It plans to build its first production line in the United States within the next one to two years.
These advancements in Active Glass technology and perovskite solar modules, coupled with ambitious production plans, suggest a promising future for solar energy. As these technologies continue to develop and scale up, they have the potential to significantly impact the renewable energy landscape.
