Patel: Perovskite solar remains in early innovation despite efficiency potential
“Solar PV is mature, is more mature. It's in well into our commercialization phases, but perovskite based solar applied to PV, which has the potential to raise Efficiency significantly, that's still there in that much earlier category.”
