2nd International Emerging PV workshop (EPVW2) at NGSE8

It is our great pleasure to announce the second international Emerging-PV workshop (EPVW2) to be held on December 14, 2022, during the 8th Conference Next Generation Solar Energy (NGSE8), in Erlangen, Germany. The workshop will be held in a hybrid format and a broadcast will take place via Zoom Webinar Free for All after registration for NGSE8.

Following the previous edition (EPVW1), the  EPVW2 will not only present the latest progress in the emerging-pv.org website and database and the fourth version of the emerging-PV reports, but also a series of talks on the most recent research progress in the PV field, with a special focus on high-throughput synthesis and artificial intelligence for energy materials in emerging solar cell technologies. The confirmed list of invited speakers is as follows:

Maria A. Loi, University of Groninger, The Netherlands

Barry P. Rand, Princenton University, United States of America

Rene Janssen, Eindhoven University of Technology, The Netherlands

Kenjiro Fukuda, Center for Emergent Matter Science-RIKEN, Japan

International Emerging-PV workshop (EPVW1)

1st Emerging PV Workshop

It is our great pleasure to announce the first international Emerging-PV workshop (EPVW1) to be held on December 8, 2022, during the 7th Conference Next Generation Solar Energy (NGSE7), in Erlangen, Germany. The workshop will be held in a hybrid format and a broadcast will take place via Zoom Webinar Free for All after registration for NGSE7.

The  EPVW1 will not only present the latest progress in the emerging-pv.org website and database and the third version of the emerging-PV reports, but also a series of talks on the most recent research progress in the PV field, with a special focus on multijunction emerging solar cell technologies. The confirmed list of invited speakers is as follows:

  • Fei Guo, Jinan University, China
  • Eva Unger, Helmholtz-Zentrum Berlin, Germany

Emerging-PV kickoff on the NGSE5

Prof. Dr. Christoph J. Brabec kicks off the Emerging-PV initiative at the NGSE5 conference.

Emerging-PV initiative launched

Erlangen, DE – Emerging-PV is an International Consortium Initiative to Summarize and Visualize Research Progress on Emerging PV Technologies

The Emerging PV Reports Initiative (EPVRI) is an academic international framework for collecting, presenting and analyzing data about the best achievements in the research of emerging photovoltaic materials, e.g., organic, perovskite and dye sensitized solar cells, among others.

More than 30 researchers from 15 countries have worked out the fundamental guidelines for reporting progress in emerging PV based on peer reviewed publications. The first version of the Emerging PV Reports is available online and it can be cited as Adv. Energy Mater. 2020, 2002774

In order to guarantee highest data quality, outmost precision and best reliability, a series of criteria will be automatically verified when uploading data. We believe that the accurate reporting of record performance for novel, innovative and emerging semiconductors, independent whether they are demonstrated in flexible, transparent or rigid solar cell architectures, will support to accelerate photovoltaic materials science development. Special emphasis will be placed on reporting operational lifetime efforts – the ultimate discipline of photovoltaics.

Authors are invited to contribute to this database effort and upload their research data based on peer reviewed publications. Submission of research data will be possible under the section My cells, where we provide an interactive form for data contribution and editing. Contributors will gain access to the analysis and visualization tools beyond the public scope. In case of questions, you can reach the authors of this platform under support@emerging-pv.org.
