2024: Hybrid Perovskite Battery Presentation

NUST MISIS presented the first in Russia full-format battery based on hybrid perovskites, made only from domestic materials and ready to be put into production. The solar panel is cheaper than analogues at cost, and the manufacturing cycle is 8-10 hours. It can be installed both in a private house and on industrial facilities of enterprises, for which the implementation of the "green" agenda is a priority. The connection of many subcells in the panel provides high power generation in shading and cloudy weather conditions. The development opens up new horizons for the operation of solar energy even in the Arctic and the Far North. The university announced this on October 4, 2024.

The MISIS University under the Priority-2030 program has formed and is implementing the strategic project "Materials of the Future," the task of which is to create innovative materials, including those with specified properties. Scientists of the laboratory of promising solar power under the leadership of Ph.D. Danila Saranin have been developing materials and technologies for alternative power for a number of years, are conducting research in the field of increasing the life and efficiency of new generation solar cells. A full-format battery based on hybrid perovskites is made exclusively of domestic materials, has confirmed its effectiveness in scattered light, is fully ready for introduction into production, "said Alevtina Chernikova, rector of MISIS University.

It is important that the product is made using new industrial technologies. Pulsed laser processing, crystallization of thin films in a rarefied medium, and photoactive layers were applied by liquid-phase methods. The panel is made of 16 switched perovskite modules. The body is made of shockproof, chemically tempered glass of photoelectric quality, developed by the Russian Glass Company (JSC RSK). The unique properties of perovskites allow you to transform solar energy in cloud weather and low light. Panel power is 7 W and voltage is 48 V.

2 years after the start of the development of product areas, the team of the laboratory of promising solar power presents the first full-format panel based on hybrid perovskites, created as part of the strategic project "Materials of the Future" under the program "Priority-2030." If earlier separate composite units were presented - modules and cells, now this is a full-fledged product, ready for trial operation on the roofs of houses and solar power plants. This is a real progress in increasing the technological maturity of developments. We are ready to share technology and are open to proposals, "said Danila Saranin, head of the laboratory of promising solar power at NITU MISIS.

With active cooperation with the scientific and technical center of thin-film technologies of the HEVEL Group of Companies (NTC TPT LLC), scientists have solved one of the most difficult tasks - sealing the solar battery in order to prevent degradation of the product under the influence of moisture and oxygen. Together, it was possible to adapt the use of elastomers for laminating the panel, ensuring resistance to external influences.

Enterprises that have implemented perovskite panels will be able to reduce their carbon footprint, increase energy efficiency and meet sustainable development standards. All materials for prototyping perovskite modules are provided only by Russian companies. According to developers, in the next 3 years it is possible to move to pilot production.
