The design and outdoor application of dye-sensitized solar cells

To upscale DSC size to commercial size, our group was involved in developing a commercial DSC panel, which could show the industrial way and prospect. The repeatable DSC module with the size of 150 mm × 200 mm and photoelectric conversion efficiency around 6% was reproduced in our laboratory. The DSC panel up to the size of 450 mm × 800 mm was fabricated. This is the high efficiency and industrial production design of a DSC panel, a primary power station with 500 W was installed on our roof for charging the battery. The study on the stability and performance of the DSC module, panel and future production are ongoing in our laboratory. In this article, we will report a systematic study in the test and the design from the single cell, the modules, to the panels, and our design of a 500 W primary DSC power station.
