The reporter recently learned from the relevant departments of Quzhou City, Zhejiang Province that the perovskite production line invested by Hangzhou Shina Optoelectronics Technology Co., Ltd. was officially put into operation in Quzhou, Zhejiang. The planned output in 2020 is expected to exceed 200,000 square meters of photovoltaic glass. Industry insiders believe that this marks the transition of perovskite photovoltaic cell technology from research and development to production, and promotes the large-scale industrial application of this technology.
Perovskite photovoltaic cell is a new type of synthetic photovoltaic material with a very excellent photoelectric conversion rate, abundant raw materials, low cost, and environmentally friendly production. It has become a hot research field that has received wide attention. Perovskite materials can be made into very thin and flexible solar cells, which can be installed on cars, mobile phones, roofs, glass curtain walls, etc.
"According to our calculations, after the large-scale application of perovskite photovoltaic cells, the cost of power generation can be reduced to about half of the current traditional battery, which is equivalent to the price of coal power. The color is controllable, and different colors of external wall photovoltaic power generation modules can be customized according to customer requirements, which has a competitive advantage in the building photovoltaic market," said Yan Buyi, executive vice president of Hangzhou Sina Optoelectronics.
According to the data released in mid-2020, the authoritative list of the global photovoltaic industry "Photovoltaic Cell Efficiency List", Hangzhou Shina Optoelectronics achieved 18.04% of the photoelectric conversion efficiency of perovskite small modules and ranked for the seventh time in three years. First in the world efficiency record. In addition, Hangzhou Sina Optoelectronics' perovskite battery components also passed the independent third-party inspection of the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) standards at the end of 2019.
It is understood that the Quzhou Shina New Energy Technology Co., Ltd. production base project invested by Hangzhou Shina Optoelectronics has an estimated total investment of 5.46 billion yuan and a total land area of 600 mu. At present, the base has completed the first phase of workshops including semiconductor workshops, power, synthesis and other related supporting facilities.
