– Power generation efficiency measurement and corrosion resistance demonstration test
Nikkan Kogyo Shimbun Report from May 24, 2023
Tokyo Metropolitan Government and Sekisui Chemical:
On May 24, a film-type perovskite solar cell was installed at the Morigasaki Water Reclamation Center (Tokyo), and demonstration experiments began.
Verification of power generation efficiency measurement and corrosion resistance at sewage treatment facilities.
Fig. 1 Morigasaki Water Reclamation CenterThree types of batteries with different sizes:Three of each are installed, the area is 9 square meters, and the rated output is 1kw.Joint research on film-type perovskites:Until December 2025, the power generation efficiency of sewage treatment facilities will be measured and corrosion resistance will be verified.
A film-type perovskite solar cell was installed on the top of the reaction tank lid of a water treatment plant.
Comment from Tokyo Governor Yuriko Koike:
Perovskite solar cells are thin, light, and bendable, making them useful tools.
Fig. 2 Upper part of the reaction tank lid of the water treatment facilityNumber of sheets, area, rated output:3 types of batteries of different sizes x 3 pieces (Fig. 2), about 9 square meters, about 1 kilowatt (total) * Largest scale in JapanMain contents:We will measure the power generation efficiency of perovskite and verify its corrosion resistance performance.
Sekisui Chemical is conducting research on film-type perovskite solar cells for the purpose of large-capacity power generation.
