Top 5 Solar Energy Advances Using Perovskites. For 20% off a clean and secure browsing experience, go to: www.Guard.io/undecided For years, perovskite solar cells have promised revolutionary improvements compared to traditional silicon solar panels. Perovskite could hold the key to higher efficiency at lower costs and in some cases has shown a 250% performance boost. But scientists have been working on improving this solar energy tech since the 1990s. What do we have to show for it today? This feels like yet another piece of over-hyped, planet-saving tech, perpetually 10 years away from adoption, right? Maybe not … they might finally be on the market before the end of this year. Let’s look at 5 perovskite solar panel advances since the last time we talked about it.
Be sure to check out the previous perovskite video here: • Perovskite Solar Cells...

As someone who works in the solar industry, perovskites are very interesting (as is graphene conductors). Anything that may increase the efficiency of solar panels and their electricity generation is going to be good for the renewable future. I wonder if you’ve ever looked into inverter efficiency because converting DC to usable AC power (and in a safe way) is also a hurdle for solar electricity. Thanks for another great video.

@@Mike__B they are making massive steps forwards in relation to graphene, the production costs have been cut drastically and they can now manufacture it in large quantities at decent prices. So now the next step is graphene sheets but graphene in small portions are already being used in the UK in road construction with asphalt and concrete and seems to be showing very impressive results but I suppose it still needs to pass the test of time.

What do you want to look into regarding inverter efficiency? Microinverters are commonly 90% efficient and modern high frequency string inverters that are currently on the market are 95%+ efficient. There's no point in chasing the last 1 or 2% possible of efficiency since it'd likely make products more complicated, expensive, and/or shorter lived.

Sitting on various ASTM (I) committees over the decades, I have co-authored many testing and measurement standards, which need to be agreed upon for all new technologies. Taking the new technology mentioned into practical applications is my specialty.

2FA was huge step forward. There are phishing and hacking methods that completely bypass 2FA. Just look at the Linus Tech Tips hack that just happened a month or two ago. Stealing someone's browser cookies/session data can allow someone right into your account. If the 2FA is using a cellphone number to text you a code, that's also hackable by cloning your cellphone number and receiving the code (it's also happened in the wild). 2FA isn't bulletproof.

In hotter and sunnier areas where aircon will be used - this is going to be essential, especially for grid distribution and load management.

Watching your videos, I find myself thinking about whether or not any of these companies can be invested in. As a result, I’m thinking of two things that would be super cool if you can include them. First, if a company is publicly traded, it would be nice if you put in the Chiron, the company, stock symbol and trading platform, for example, NYSE, and then the stock symbol. The other thing you could do either in addition to, or instead, is have a list of all the companies that you do stories on along with links to their company profiles. Just a thought, and a reminder that investing in companies can be one way to encourage them to succeed. It also gives us an opportunity. If they’re probably traded to influence the choices, they make both in the products that they choose to make, but also in their labor practices and executive governance. That can have an impact on how Green and how responsible these companies are.

1000 hours to 95%. It's just 4 months (8h/day). Silicon based panels keep that for 10 years and the best ones for 20. So you're still a 30* factor behind. The problem is also the labor to change panels. You have to be really really cheaper if your lifespan is shorter or the cost to do the change more often will absorb that gain.

They didn't have time to test more yet, they only concluded that is still holding 95% in 1000 hours, but they will need months more to check if it can, for instance, reach 10k hours over lets say 90% and so on. Its a new tech, you can't expect them to have it tested for decades even on advanced wear facilities

@@MrCaiobrz You expect linear or less degradation? But it could be even worse. It could snowball and be exponentially bad... Anyway, even with the most optimistic case, it's still an order of magnitude behind silicon. Concerning the advertised value, it's not because they didn't have the time, it's because they want to give a good number that can be easily remembered. 95% and 1000h looks good for the average Joe but it's actually not much.

The thing in your video that astonished me is that there is no international standards for measuring performance (if I understood you correctly) - I worked for a year or so at the National Institute for Biological Standards and Controls (NIBSC) in the UK and a major part of their job was agreeing (at the time with the US CDC) on international standards for diseases. They also produced samples of international standard quality diseases and exported them to researchers around the world. The purpose being that if Professor Singh in Bombay was working on a Hepatitis A treatment he could publish his work and it's efficacy could be directly compared with the results achieved by Professor Smith at Harvard, or Schulz at Heidelberg - and be easily replicated by other scientists verifying Singh's research. I mean we've only been looking at PV systems since the 60's - you'd have thought someone could agree on something by now.

There was also Nanopac 10 years ago who produced a solar-film that is used on the Petronas Towers in Malaysia. They were on the stock exchange in New York listed. That was 10 years ago. Didn’t hear from them anymore.

This is one of the challenges and promises for solar. Currently the cost and uncertainty of utility credits is hampering more solar - add the possibility of major breakthroughs and I am sitting on the sidelines waiting for the future.

Hi Matt, Oxford PV has been announcing commercially available perovskite PV by 2020, then 2021, 2022,… Any chance of a video showing what keeps delaying Oxford PV and commercial manufacturing of perovskite PV over the last 3+ years?

For the most part, I've enjoyed watching your videos. However, one of the biggest issues with the corporate world is their love of the all mighty dollar. It has slowed down advancements more than anything else.

Mind blowing nano tech. Great work Primo! How about the end user units? Whats the cleanup? The hazmat factor? Currently we have an issue not being addressed. The cleanup. Encapsulation, dislodging, removal, transportation, and finally disposal, ( which requires a site and generally burial or breakdwn) of hazmat, each stage will require fed osha requlation to some extent. Placing all of these hazmats in a landfill, would be the equivelant of dumping truckloads of lead paint chips in a landfill. I personally have been dispatched to landfill sites to decontaminate garbage landfill from asbestos and lead. Do you know if anyone has or is addressing this issue? Matt myPrimo, that is in fact an issue worthy of addressing. If these materials are known carcinogens in manufacturing, what is the end users liability, as well as what is the manufacturers liability? For reference we need look no further thanthe Johns-Mansville payout to the Fed for asbestos health lawsuits fund, which is in the billions of dollars. This is where most all of the Meslofilioma and Asbestosis funds are coming from for the info-mercials in certain every reader of this comment has seen repeatedly on most every television channel...... if you or a loved one currently has or died from asbestosis or meslofilioma call 1800........ catch my drift? Lemme know Primo. My Dad wrote A.S.H.E.R.A. which was a brilliant piggy back to A.H.E.R.A. and made him a great deal of $$$$$. The Company was called General Industrial Insulation. He also partnered in Global Construction and Maintenance. Concord Engineering, both of which were spin off from Mike Leisure's Petro-Chem insulation. Hit me up Primo, i may be able to put afew thousand people to work. Remember one thing. Garbage ultimately rules the world. Key word- Rules. If we dont make em, someone else will.

Could you make a video about the current highest efficiency solar cells like multijunction cells and also about promising high efficiency PV cells chemistries, like gallium arsenide, graphene multijunction, etc ?
Have we been doing Solar wrong all along?
