STaFF - Industrial Sovereignty Tandem of French Manufacturing
Photovoltaic revolution – IPVF, a key player in the energy transition
IPVF accelerates the industrialization of photovoltaics in Europe to make France a technological leader for the energy transition
???? The energy transition is a strategic opportunity for the French and European industrial sovereignty.
In 2024, we have launched Staff (Industrial Sovereignty Manufacturing Tandem French) to structure a cutting-edge photovoltaic sector.
💡 A disruptive technology, ready for industrialization :
✔️ Record yield of 26% on large surfaces
✔️ Processes compatible with mass production
✔️ Perovskite/silicon tandem technology optimized for industrialization
(I.e. An ambitious industrial project : With VOLTEC Solar and the support of France 2030 program and Region Ile-de-France we are implanting in Paris Saclay another unique pilot line in Europe, a real pre-acceleratorindustrialization.
👥 Our Ambition : Structuring a French sector through our action of excellence with 5 GW of annual production and 1 direct jobs by 2030.
SOLUTION – Perovskite innovation at the service of photovoltaics
🎯 15 years of expertise in photovoltaic perovskites at IPVF
(I.e. Unique know-how to revolutionize solar energy :
✔️ >18% efficiency on 40 cm²
✔️ 100+ scientific publications
✔️ 8 patent families
✔️ A unique testing platform in Europe
🚀 From research to industrialization
Our teams are pushing the limits of perovskite technology to accelerate its industrial adoption. Thanks to the program Staff, we take up the challenges major players in the sector:
✅ Maturation of manufacturing processes
✅ upscale for large-scale production
✅ Improving the stability of photovoltaic cells
TECHNOLOGY – Tandem 4T Perovskite/Silicon
(I.e. When perovskite meets silicon: a photovoltaic revolution in tandem
🚀 Towards record yields
At IPVF, we push the boundaries of efficiency solar. Our technology tandem perovskite/silicon hit 26% return, or, + 5 points compared to standard panels.
🌞 Harnessing the full potential of the solar spectrum
Our approach is based on semi-modulestransparent perovskite, associated with cells high performance silicon VOLTEC Solar. Goal : maximize light absorption and optimize energy conversion.
An innovation designed in France, for French industry.
ECO-RESPONSIBLE PRODUCT
???? Performance & environmental responsibility
Our technology perovskite/silicon tandem do not not only does it optimize performance, it re-invent ecological standards :
✅ Reduced carbon footprint : < 200 kg CO₂/kWc
✅ 30% recycled materials for an approach circular
✅ Local production & short circuits to limit environmental impact
💡 Technological excellence at the service of planet.
PILOT LINE
(I.e. The IPVF is deploying its pilot line at Paris-Saclay!
🚀 A decisive step towards industrialization
We are installing a complete prototyping line perovskite, a unique infrastructure in Europe for accelerate the transition from R&D to large-scale production.
📌 Key features :
✔️ Capacity : Modules of 60 × 30 cm²
✔️ The goal : Industrial validation of our tandem technology
✔️ Horizon : Production planned from 2025
FACTORIES & PROJECTS IN FRANCE – IPVF at the heart of the photovoltaic revolution
???? IPVF is committed to a sustainable energy future by France
🚀 Target: 100 GW of photovoltaic capacity by 2050
It front of France's ambitious goals, innovation Technology is essential to achieve these results. The IPVF plays a key role in this transformation.
