Founded in May 2022, Photon Crystal Energy Technology Ltd. (Photon Crystal Energy) specialises in the development, manufacture and commercialisation of high-efficiency, long-lifetime, large-area, low-cost printable perovskite photovoltaic modules. Our core team includes alumni of the University of Melbourne, University of New South Wales, and Peking University, featuring one Academician, two Professors and several PhD holders, bringing deep technical expertise and extensive industrial experience.
Core Advantages & Industry Breakthroughs
- Leading Production Line: In August 2024, we launched the first 100 MW intelligent production line for perovskite photovoltaic modules in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area - also the world’s first perovskite photovoltaic modules production line using full printing technology
- Proprietary Technology: Powered by our IP-protected large-area perovskite thin-film printing technology, we enable scalable production of 1200 mm × 600 mm modules with a certified output of 120 W.
- Cost Efficiency: Our production process features lower equipment investment, reduced energy consumption, and high materials utilization efficiently, laying a robust cost foundation for future GW-scale expansion.
R&D Strength & Quality Assurance
- R&D Team Profile: Over 60% of our team are R&D professionals, with more than 40% holding Master’s or PhD degrees, which underpins our robust technical capability.
- Technical Achievements: We hold 3 invention patents and 5 utility model patents, with laboratory-scale small-area cells achieving a photovoltaic conversion efficiency of over 27%, 30 cm × 30 cm modules delivering a steady-state efficiency of over 20% with maximum power point tracking (MPPT), and mass-produced 1200 mm × 600 mm modules reaching an output power of 120 W.
- Quality Assurance: Our production system is ISO 9001 and ISO 45001 certified. Massproduced 1200 mm × 600 mm modules have passed TUV third-party efficiency testing and IEC61215/IEC61730 stability tests, and obtained RoHS, CE, UKCA, 3C certifications, as well as the “Golden Sun” photovoltaic certification. Our BIPV building-integrated products also meet national standards for structural strength, fire safety, wind and water resistance.
Application & Vision
- Applications: Beyond reliable power generation and long service life, Photon Crystal Energy’s modules boast exceptional performance under low-light conditions, adjustable transparency, and customizable colours and textures. Our products cater to utility-scale and distributed PV systems, as well as BIPV (Building-Integrated Photovoltaic) applications, with continuous advancements in innovative PV building materials.
- Vision: Leveraging the disruptive “printable solar” model, we strive to broaden the adoption of photovoltaic products, making solar energy accessible anytime, anywhere. We are committed to supporting China’s “dual carbon” goals (carbon peaking and carbon neutrality) and facilitating the global transition to clean energy.
