About

Greatcell Solar develops ultra-thin, printable perovskite solar cells and scalable manufacturing processes for large-area devices integrated into building materials like glass and metal sheeting from its Queanbeyan prototype facility.

Mission

Greatcell Solar develops ultra-thin perovskite solar cells positioned as a potential lower-cost alternative to conventional silicon PV. The company is pursuing printable, large-area perovskite devices that can also be applied to building materials such as glass and metal sheeting. It says perovskite cells can be manufactured cheaply using common industrial processes and are suited to real-world solar conditions. Greatcell plans to scale up fabrication via a world-class prototype facility to produce high-quality, large-area devices. The company announced government-backed funding to accelerate development and move the technology toward commercialisation. The ASX announcement notes the company is Queanbeyan-based and highlights recent grants supporting demonstration of efficiency and stability.
