Copprint’s Cu paste is featured in a groundbreaking new publication in Solar RRL, highlighting its role in reducing silver consumption for screen-printed contacts in TOPCon PV cells!
This pioneering work by Yuchao Zhang and Brett Hallam from UNSW demonstrates a major breakthrough: by incorporating our low-temperature copper pastes, they achieved a remarkable 24.04% efficiency while reducing silver usage by 25% compared to standard industrial cells.
In 2023, the PV industry consumed 19% of the world’s silver supply. To sustain future growth, it’s critical to reduce silver usage in PV cell production. At Copprint, we are dedicated to providing sustainable, cost-effective solutions for the photovoltaics industry with our cutting-edge copper paste. This publication reinforces the potential of our Cu ink to transform solar cell manufacturing, making it more efficient and environmentally friendly.
A huge congratulations to all the researchers and partners involved! We are excited to continue advancing toward a greener future with innovative materials and technologies.
