Saule Research Institute

Happy Holidays! 🎄 May this festive season and upcoming celebrations bring you and your loved ones much joy and prosperity 🎊

With best wishes,
Team of Saule Research Institute 🔬

🎉 Exciting news! 🎉

We are thrilled to announce that Saule, Saule Research Institute (SRI) and Solaveni, in collaboration with our amazing project partners from Horizon Europe Project DROP-IT, have achieved a groundbreaking milestone! 🌟

Our talented PhD students Felipe and Wiktor have done an absolutely phenomenal job in developing the first-of-its-kind lead-free tin halide perovskite flexible modules, with a record Power Conversion Efficiency! 🙌🔬

This research is not just important; it's a big leap beyond any previous work on tin perovskite. These eco-friendly modules were made using scalable, industrial methods on the record module area! 🌱♻️

We couldn't have done it without the incredible contributions of all co-authors. A big thank you to each and every one of you! 🤝

Our groundbreaking research paper is now out in the ACS Energy Letters! 🚀 Delve deeper into the science behind our achievement by following this link: https://pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/acsenergylett.3c02066 💡

Large-Area, Flexible, Lead-Free Sn-Perovskite Solar Modules For the first time, large-area, flexible organic–inorganic tin perovskite solar modules are fabricated by means of an industry-compatible and scalable blade-coating technique. An 8-cell interconnected mini module with dimensions of 25 cm2 (active area = 8 × 1.5 cm2) reached 5.7% power conversion ...

On the we want to celebrate all the children and remind them, that age is no restriction to having a bright idea that can make a difference, and that for each of them there is a place in science 🔬 🔭 Curious children make curious researchers, and curious researchers make discoveries that change the world 💡 Here's to our young change-makers! 🧍‍♀️🧍👏

Happy Intellectual Property Day! 🎉

👉 Did you know, that at Saule we have successfully secured 13 patent families and 37 patent applications? ✅

Many thanks to each and every one of you, whose efforts brought the development of our technology to the point of making it possible, and - of course and most of all - a shoutout to our great IP Team, who does some truly marvellous job securing our intellectual property and much more! 💪

As the Easter season approaches, we want to extend our warmest wishes to you and your families. We hope this holiday brings you joy, peace and time to relax ☀️

What if, one day, making new solar modules could be as easy as printing a newspaper?

Saule Research Institute and Saule Technologies have joined forces with an incredible international research team for the SuPerTandem project. It will accelerate the European transition to clean energy by providing its solar energy market with a perovskite solar panel which is much more affordable, better performing, made at a lower cost, and environment-friendly 🔅

This being said, the SuPerTandem team will be developing an innovative, scalable, low CO2 footprint photovoltaic technology for highly efficient two-terminal tandem cells and modules based on complementary metal-halide perovskite absorbers ✅

The project is being led by TNO (Netherlands Organisation for Applied Scientific Research). The consortium, consisting of 15 partners, creates an ideal combination of Research and Technology Organisations, Universities and SMEs 🤝 Get ready to revolutionize the way we harness solar power!
