- Perovskite solar cells: New Young Investigator Group funded by BMBF at HZBIn the COMET-PV project, Dr Artem Musiienko aims to significantly accelerate the development of perovskite solar cells. He is using robotics and AI to analyse the many variations in the material composition of tin-based perovskites. The physicist will set up a Young Investigator Group at HZB. He will also have an affiliation with Humboldt University in Berlin, where he will gain teaching experience in preparation for a future professorship.
- HZB-postdoc Feng Liang becomes associate Professor at Xi'an Jiaotong UniversityDr. Feng Liang has joined the HZB Institute Solar Fuels in 2021. Now, he has secured an associate professorship at the Green Hydrogen Innovation Center in the Department of Mechanical Engineering, Xi'an Jiaotong University, China. He will start to build up his research team in June 2025.
- Strategisches Positionspapier zur Stärkung der SolarindustrieFrankfurt, 06. März 2025 – Die führenden deutschen Solarforschungseinrichtungen, die Fachabteilung „Photovoltaik Produktionsmittel“ des Industrieverbands VDMA und das Produktionsplanungs-Unternehmen RCT Solutions, haben ein gemeinsames Positionspapier zur Stärkung der deutschen und europäischen Solarindustrie veröffentlicht. Dieses wird nun an die Parteien übermittelt, die nach der Bundestagswahl im Bundestag vertreten sind. Ziel ist es, die vorgeschlagenen Maßnahmen in die Koalitionsverhandlungen einzubringen und damit die Grundlage für eine widerstandsfähige und wettbewerbsfähige Solarindustrie in Deutschland zu schaffen.
