Even Greener Solar Power on the Way

For panels made of the most efficient – monocrystalline – cells, the corresponding reduction is 25 per cent. These objectives are to be reached via a wide range of technological measures.
Solar-cell “doctor” on the way
A further aim of the project is to develop a solar-cell “doctor”: a fully automated system capable of identifying defects in finished cells and repairing those that are capable of being rescued.
This is intended to ensure the best possible performance of panels once they have been installed on the premises of clients.
The project started in October 2015, and will continue for three years.
"We hope that the results of our work will be on the market within year two of the completion of the project,” says its coordinator, Martin Bellmann.
