PEPPERONI Pilot line for European Production of PEROvskite-Silicon taNdem modules on Industrial scale

Coordinator: HELMHOLTZ-ZENTRUM BERLIN FUR MATERIALIEN UND ENERGIE GMBH (DE)

To prevent the worst outcomes of climate change and increase Europe’s energy independence, urgent and massive efforts are required to transform Europe’s energy production to renewable and secure sources. Photovoltaics (PV) has emerged as a key technology in these efforts with projected annual growth rates of 30-35% over the next years. A strong base of PV industry across the entire value chain is, therefore, of strategic importance for Europe to support this strong market growth.Since the currently dominating silicon (Si) PV technology is approaching its efficiency limit, PEPPERONI aims to 's…

About Horizon Europe (2021–2027)

Horizon Europe is the EU's current research and innovation programme, covering 2021 to 2027 with a budget of roughly €95.5 billion. Its three pillars are Excellent Science (frontier research and mobility), Global Challenges and European Industrial Competitiveness (mission-driven collaborative projects in health, climate, digital, security and food) and Innovative Europe (the EIC and EIT). It also funds five EU Missions targeting cancer, climate adaptation, smart cities, oceans and soils.

Co-funding: the European Union contributes €13.0M toward a total project budget of €17.0M — a funding rate of 76%, with the remainder covered by the consortium partners. The project runs over approximately 4 years from 2022-11-01 to 2026-10-31.
