The Intersolar Europe 2024 trade show closed its doors for another year on Friday (21st June). Ahead of further coverage and interviews from the conference, this piece will collate a few of the key takeaways that we saw on the ground at the show last week.

LONGi has announced a commercial M6 size wafer-level silicon-perovskite tandem solar cell with 30.1% efficiency at Intersolar Europe 2024.

Perovskite solar cell researcher Oxford PV has unveiled a new perovskite-silicon tandem module in conjunction with German module producer Sunmaxx, with a record conversion efficiency of 26.6%.

US solar technology company Swift Solar has secured US$27 million to develop its perovskite tandem solar cell manufacturing.

US cadmium telluride (CdTe) thin-film solar manufacturer First Solar has agreed to pursue further thin-film technology development with Germany’s Center for Solar Energy and Hydrogen Research Baden-Württemberg (ZSW).

Khajeh Nasir Toosi University of Technology reserachers have developed ‘half-tandem’ solar cells with a power conversion efficiency of 27.63%.

Research into perovskites, as well as new storage technology, will be supported by Japan’s US$11 billion Climate Transition Bond.

Researchers from the NUS have developed a new triple-junction perovskite/silicon tandem solar cell with a power conversion efficiency of 27.1%.

CubicPV has abandoned its plans for a 10GW solar wafer manufacturing facility in the US and is "restructuring" to focus on perovskite module development.

Tandem PV has secured US$6 million to advance research and development and plans to build its first manufacturing plant.
