However, despite attempts by Konarka and others, commercializing organic photovoltaic (OPV) panels has previously proved challenging.

Key Points: 
  • However, despite attempts by Konarka and others, commercializing organic photovoltaic (OPV) panels has previously proved challenging.
  • Around 2015 single-junction organic solar cell efficiencies seemed to be plateauing at around 11%, and the technology was largely regarded as a nice idea that never quite met the necessary efficiency and longevity requirements.
  • However, recently efficiencies have increased, while the differentiated attributes of OPV enable commercial viability for applications such as building-integrated, indoor, and semi-transparent photovoltaics.
  • The fullerene is known as an acceptor material and was regarded as an essential component of an organic solar cell.
