PVTIME – Solar module producer Heliene has started manufacturing perovskite-glass hybrid tandem photovoltaic hardware on a commercial scale in partnership with technology firm Caelux at its production facility in Minnesota.
This manufacturing activity will support the supply of products for the domestic United States market, covering both distributed-generation installations and utility-scale ground-mount solar parks. The dual-layer module design combines Caelux’s perovskite-active glass with n-type silicon cells, surpassing the performance boundaries of conventional single-silicon photovoltaic products. Volume shipments to customers are scheduled to commence in 2027.
This manufacturing milestone represents a significant step forward for perovskite-silicon tandem technology within US domestic solar supply chains, offering local project developers access to higher-efficiency products.
