And also organizing this event.

So this is my first time here with you all and thank you very much for being here.

We are talking about the future of the airships and we often think about lighter than air

travel and long distance missions and also sustainable operations in the sky.

But what we can think about covering these massive structures with some kind of instruments that we

can harvest the light from the sun.

That is where my fields come in.

So I'm a research scientist at

Solar Factory of the Future that is actually affiliated with the Helmshaw Institute and

also Energy Campus and also for Centrum Joolich.

We are primarily based in Energy Campus of

Nooram because so in principle you all are in our premises right now.

We have our facilities and

all the coating laboratories and also the pilot lines everything in our first floor and the ground

floor.

If somebody wants to see our facilities you are very welcome at any time.

So actually I

reduced my PowerPoint after first two speakers in this session because I don't want to repeat the

same story.

So somehow I am safe because this is perovskite so I think nobody has still not

presented somehow this one. So I'm still lucky to present something to you.

Well

before we go into the research that we are doing let's take a step back and let's see the

big image of the solar power.

This is the reality that we can have within one hour the energy

requirement for our annual energy consumption we can cover within one hour of solar power.

But the

reality that even Sunford provided us the 200

000 terawatt of energy the global power demand is at

20 terawatt but unluckily that PV installation is still at the moment is one terawatt.

So the

problem is not about the availability how talented we are to convert this light into our energy

requirement.

So at the solar factory what we are doing is we are working on the fourth generation

photovoltaics that is emerging photovoltaics mainly organic solar cells and perovskite solar

cells.

So my background is basically the perovskite solar cells so this talk completely covered with

the perovskite solar cells.

So here is our pilot line in our institute basically we have almost

six roll-to-roll instruments depending on the requirements and two main roll-to-roll instruments

for the organics photovoltaics fabrication and also for the perovskite fabrications.

These are

the core instruments that we have and we can produce up to two meters per minute is quite

high throughput processing and also mass production that is only possible because we are working on

the solution process technique that is organic and perovskite can be fabricated with the solutions.

Quite high throughput process we can finish.

Well this graph I think you are quite familiar

now but I don't want to remove this one because this is quite interesting graph among the photovoltaic

scientists.

I just hide the unnecessary part for me but emerging photovoltaic if you concerned
