Striking a careful balance between technical limitations, market ambitions, and contractual realism in operating battery energy storage systems (BESS) is no easy task. Rigid battery warranties can often be a make-or-break factor in BESS asset management. As a result, many industry players now argue that adopting a more flexible approach to warranties could unlock greater value from these inherently flexible assets.

Tiny pinholes can lead to device failure in perovskite solar cells

Researchers in the United States have found microscopic pinholes in perovskites are responsible for the breakdown of such solar cells when under reverse bias conditions. They say the findings should push scientists and engineers to prioritize the production of pinhole-free films to make perovskites more robust and stable.
