Series of happy coincidenses

Perovskites were discovered in the Urals in the 1930s. And that was that. Even though they were known to absorb sunlight and conduct electricity well, they were not used for scientific purposes. Until Olga Malinkiewicz started experimenting with them to make a new type of photovoltaic cell. Initially, her team tried to use perovskites in the same way as conventional cristalline silicon panels - on glass. However, in order to produce a panel of this kind, they needed a furnace that could reach temperatures of 500 degrees Celsius. It was unavailable at the university where they worked, so Olga's idea was to do it on a flexible base and without high temperatures involved. It was the day that revolutionised the approach to solar energy storage.

Where is that bison?

The new solar panels are one-tenth the thickness of a human hair and have much better light absorption (and therefore efficiency) than silicon ones. They even absorb artificial light! As a result, the range of solar panel solutions that could come onto the market in the future is remarkably broad. It might be possible to coat cars, lorries and building facades with perovskites. Or to use them in window constructions and boat sails.
The bison in the Bialowieża Forest are already wearing GPS collars coated with perovskite. This means the batteries are no longer needed and the herds can be better controlled and monitored. This is just the beginning!

We're waiting for the Nobel Prize!

The icing on the cake is the environmental aspect of manufacturing perovskite panels. There is no waste in the production process and the carbon footprint is ten times smaller than that of conventional solar panels. Storage and recycling of these panels will soon become a major problem. The cells invented by Olga Malinkiewicz are easy to dispose of, simply by burning them in an oven with a smoke filter.
Someday we will certainly offer a perovskite-coated organiser. But until then, we will rely on another form of energy storage - the power bank, which is still indispensable in many situations.

In anticipation of the Nobel Prize for Olga Malinkiewicz, our organiser with power bank will help you stay online.
