Solar Energy

The department has an international expertise on characterisation, development and processing of solar cells based on crystalline silicon.

Belt furnaces
Our activity is built mainly around the solar cell laboratory at IFE, which contains a dedicated line for producing silicon-based solar cells, and is unique in the Nordic countries. Additionally, a well-equipped solar cell characterization laboratory is also present for measuring all kind of structural, electrical and optical properties.

A more detailed decription of the solar energy R&D activities at IFE is available by clicking here or on Subject - Solar Energy on the right hand side of this page. The Solar Energy department at IFE was established in January 2008, but solar energy R&D activities have been ongoing at IFE for several years.
