Get a quoteThere are three main types of third generation solar cells. These are Dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs), Quantum dot-sensitized solar cells (QDSSCs) and Perovskite-sensitized solar cells (PSCs). More information on each third-generation solar cell type is given below:
Among the most prominent materials leveraged in third generation solar cells are perovskite solar cells, dye-sensitized solar cells, copper zinc tin sulphide (CZTS) solar cells, and those based on quantum dot technology.
However, due to the quantity of panels contained within the scope, average values were utilized for each PV type from the aggregated dataset in Jordan et al. [ 29 ]. As photovoltaic technologies are under continual development, their efficiencies and costs are expected to improve within the 30-year scope of this study [ 4, 23, 34 ].
Photovoltaic cost data between 1975 and 2003 has been taken from Nemet (2009), between 2004 and 2009 from Farmer & Lafond (2016), and since 2010 from IRENA. Prices from Nemet (2009) and Farmer & Lafond (2016) have been converted to 2024 US$ using the US GDP deflator, to account for the effects of inflation.
Despite challenges, perovskite solar cells offer high efficiency and low-cost potential, making them a leading third-generation solar technology. The commonly used semiconductors in third-generation solar cells include amorphous silicon (a-Si) and gallium arsenide (GaAs).
Third-generation solar cells stand out from earlier generations by utilizing non-traditional materials and technologies to overcome efficiency limitations. While first and second-generation cells mainly rely on pure silicon and thin-film technologies, third-generation cells incorporate multiple materials with complementary properties.
