In recent years, with the support of ACAP, Dr Anyao Liu and the Silicon PV Research Group at ANU have delivered a major body of work that is helping global industry chart the path to cleaner, more efficient and more stable silicon solar technologies. Building on decades of pioneering work at both ANU and UNSW in identifying and eliminating bulk defects in silicon, the ANU team – including Professor Dan Macdonald, Dr Anyao Liu, Dr Rabin Basnet, Ms Afsaneh Kashizadeh, Dr Zhon

In front of a full auditorium at the IEEE PVSC in Montreal, one of the world’s leading silicon solar cell experts presented a compelling analysis of Jinko Solar’s record-setting 26.7% TOPCon cell, outlining the next steps that will push mass production efficiencies beyond 27% within just a few years.   Since 2016, the Australian National University ’s Professor Dan Macdonald and his PV Research Group have partnered with Jinko Solar , the world’s largest solar cell manufacture
