At UNSW, Professor Bram Hoex and his research group are leading the international effort to understand, quantify and standardise how UV-induced degradation (UVID) should be tested and mitigated in modern silicon solar cells, suppported by the Australian Centre for Advanced Photovoltaics.

UNSW-ACAP researchers tackle corrosion in TOPCon and HJT solar cells, strengthening reliability and long-term performance in next-generation PV.

New ACAP research uncovers impact of soldering flux on degradation of HJT and TOPCon cell
