Denmark has developed a new type of plastic solar cells

According to Canadian news agency, Danish scientists said on the 15th, they have created a new type of plastic solar cells, and its service life than existing solar cells to be much longer. Denmark Risoe National Laboratory senior scientistthat they can use the new battery two and a half years, it can be said that plastic battery in the world. The advent of the product may be low-cost solar energy is widely used in new development.

Can not fail to recognize is that plastic is indeed more than the price of battery commonly used in batteries is much lower silicon - silicon thinkpad t40 battery market for 800 U.S. dollars per square meter, while the same size plastic battery is only 15 U.S. dollars. But it is fragile, the conversion of solar energy, low efficiency, the use of the shortcomings of time can not be ignored. Some research has nothing to do with the experts, before entering the market need to improve the efficiency of plastic battery.

Silicon solar cell energy conversion efficiency of 12% -15%, while only 0.2 percent of plastic battery -5%, Danish scientists said they are focusing on the durable plastic battery power, will use the more stable as the plastic battery active substances, the energy of sunlight into electricity.said that the current efficiency is improved.

said that a huge demand for solar cells, silicon solar cells as a result of electricity costs are high, a large number of production and not difficult to meet the demand. When the plastic solar cells to enhance endurance, and competitiveness have emerged in the market, it will satisfy people's demand for solar cells. For example, people can install on your mobile phone battery to replace the original plastic chemical battery.

Solar Energy Research UK experts said the new study was "important progress", but stressed that the battery in the plastic stage to enter the market still need to overcome many obstacles before. He believes that the need for a more stable plastic Apple A1078 Battery efficient, the batteries may be the future of silicon and plastic combination. According to reports, the study in the United States next month at the San Diego solar cells on display at the General Assembly.
