Scientists break Shockley-Queisser efficiency limit for silicon solar cell in experiment

A Chinese-US research group claims to have achieved a power conversion efficiency of over 50% in an n-type single-junction solar cell by inhibiting light conversion to heat at extremely low temperatures. The result was achieved at temperatures of 30-50 Kelvin, which are a few tens of degrees above absolute zero.

Qcells’ customs-detained cells released to its Georgia factories

A tightening in federal customs enforcement under a law to restrict imports made by forced labor in China’s Xinjiang region had snagged Qcells cell imports from Southeast Asia.

The steel supply crunch threatening U.S. solar ambitions
