In the framework of the Apolo project and other, a scientific article has been published by various scientist from 13 different organizations about perovskite stability and photovoltaic performance assessment. With the rapid progress of perovskite photovoltaics (PV), further challenges arise to meet meet the minimum standards required for commercial deployment. […]

On the 27th and 28th of February, the APOLO consortium met in Chambéry for its 24 months meeting. The event was hosted by the CEA branch working on solar energies INES. During the event, the consortium discussed the current project status as well the review meeting that took place in […]

From the 20th to the 22nd of January, the IPEROP20 conference took place in Tsukuba in Japan. This event is the International Conference on Perovskite, Organic Photovoltaics and Optoelectronics. Simone Mastroianni from Fraunhofer ISE won the Poster Prize from the RCS Journal. Download the poster here. More information about the […]

Photovoltaic perovskite technology reached a new efficiency record of 20,3% with a module of 11,2cm². This module was developed by the Apolo consortium at CEA laboratories Apolo is a European research project that is developing a new and promising photovoltaic technology called Perovskite for a new generation of photovoltaics. This […]

On the 13th and 14th of November, the Apolo consortium met in Brussels for two intense days. On the first one, the consortium met with the project officer and the project reviewer after 18 months of execution to present and discuss the achievements made so far. The project is on […]

On the 10th and 11th of October, the Apolo consortium met for its 18 month meeting in Athens, where Relational hosted the event. During these two days, partners discussed the progress made so far in the project and the current challenges. They went through all work packages with a special […]

The APOLO consortium is glad to publish its first newsletter. After a bit more than a year, the project presents a summary of the activities performed in the main work packages, especially the technical ones. Activities concentrate on the development of new materials for PSC, on its performance, on its […]

On the 25th and 26th of March, the APOLO consortium met in Sion for the 1 year meeting. The event was hosted by the EPFL, a partner with large research facilities 10 laboratories active in the key fields of energy, environment and health, 226 researchers, administrative and technical staff, 92 […]

CENIMAT, a partner of APOLO project, published this Februrary an article in Nano Energy Journal, a scientific journal about nanomaterials and nanodevices used in all forms of energy harvesting, conversion, storage, utilization and policy. from ELSEVIER. The article is about photonic-structured Titanium Dioxide (TiO2) perovskite solar cells and its advantages. The […]

The 6 month meeting of APOLO project was celebrated on 20th and 21th of September in Lisbon (Portugal) with UNINOVA as host institution. During these two days, partners could discuss all work packages, especially tasks related to specifications for base line perovskite solar cells (PSC) and module as well as […]

On June 25th-26th all major EU-funded perovskite photovoltaics projects including APOLO gathered to discuss main challenges and to exchange knowledge at the highest level. The high-level meeting took place at the University of Oxford. Discussions were moderated by Prof Sir Chris Llewellyn Smith, former Director-General of CERN and member of […]

Today, a new European research project developing the new generation of photovoltaic solar cells based on perovskite is being launched in Brussels. The APOLO project received a 5M€ grant from European Union’s Horizon 2020 programme to develop flexible perovskite solar cells that are reliable, fully printable, with an efficiency of […]

Perovskite solar cells (PSC) have shown an impressive learning curve in the last decades in comparison with 1st, 2nd and initial 3rd generation solar cells (such as DSSC and OPV). Since the very beginning, the main market demands for 3rd generation PV were more flexibility and more colour choices. Both […]

On the 12th and 13th of April, the kickoff meeting of APOLO project took place in Brussels. This Horizon 2020 project coordinated by Leitat aims to develop flexible perovskite solar cells that are reliable, fully printable, with an efficiency of 22% and with 90% of performance after aging tests. During […]
