Solar cell developer Oxford PV and Fraunhofer ISE have successfully developed a full-sized tandem PV module with a record efficiency of 25%.

Solar in the UK continues to be a huge discussion point for the energy sector. Although barriers in its development and several bottlenecks still remain, particularly in policy, it is clear the solar industry is collectively pulling in the right direction.

Solar cell developer Oxford PV has set a ‘new world record’ for the efficiency of a commercial-sized solar cell, it said.

Oxford PV is lauding a new record with its perovskite solar cell, which is able to convert 29.5% of solar energy into electricity.

Oxford PV has secured £34 million in new funding, partly from Meyer Burger, for a 200MW heterojunction (HJT) solar cell line.

UK-based perovskite specialist Oxford PV has raised £31 million in a Series D funding round which included participation from a host of global energy companies.

Perovskite specialist Oxford PV has announced a five-year research project with the University of Oxford that it says will push the boundaries of perovskite technology.

British perovskite solar cell developer Oxford PV has undertaken a new funding round, led by key existing investors Statoil and Legal & General Capital.

Perovskite specialist Oxford PV has relocated to a new HQ and R&D facilities.

Perovskite start-up Oxford PV is developing a pilot-line in Germany that will bring its cells closer to commercialisation.
