The most efficient organic solar module in the world comes from FAU and HI ERN

The sun is one of the most important sources for renewable energy, solar energy is a central component of the energy transition. The most efficient solar module in the world at the current time has been developed by a researcher at Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg (FAU) in close collaboration with the Helmholtz Institute Erlangen-Nürnberg for Renewable Energy (HI ERN), that belongs to Forschungszentrum Jülich: Dr. Andreas Distler at the Chair of Materials Science (Materials in Electronics and Energy Technology).
