First Graphene, an Australia-based supplier of graphene materials, has collaborated with Halocell Energy, an Australian perovskite solar technology company, and Queensland University of Technology, a public research institution in Brisbane, to develop graphene-enhanced perovskite solar cells. According to First Graphene, the integration of its PureGRAPH additive has increased cell efficiency to 30.6% while roll-to-roll dispersion technology eliminated gold and silver conductors, reducing production costs by up to 80%. Halocell said it has already commercialized indoor perovskite modules in Australia since late 2024 and is expanding its Wagga Wagga facility to produce up to 60 million units annually. The collaboration, partly supported by a AUD 2.03 million CRC-P grant, positioned perovskite modules as cost-effective alternatives to silicon with an energy payback period of just six weeks.
