New solar cell design offers over 90% efficiency, boosts durability
Story by Aman Tripathi- Interesting Engineering

Researchers at Chouaïb Doukkali University in Morocco have made major advances in solar energy technology by developing an innovative type of photovoltaic-thermal (PVT) solar panel.

The creative design enhances effectiveness while also addressing ongoing durability issues associated with traditional PVT modules.

Addressing temperature inequality
This design tries to effectively address the issue of temperature variation, a frequent challenge that contributes to the deterioration and shorter lifespan of conventional PVT panels.

“This proposal seeks to solve the problem of temperature inequality, which impacts the durability of PV panels,” they added.
