> The six µPSCs in series connection have a predicted Pmp of 1079.9 µW.
> A maximum power of 985 µW was predicted with these configurations. In addition, the conversion efficiency of the micro-photosynthetic power cell, which is discussed in this manuscript, has a light input to electricity conversion efficiency of 0.18%. This is smaller in comparison with conventional photovoltaic cells.
The most important part.
- solardev 2y agoWow, that's tiny. I think solar modules have efficiencies up to 40% these days (47% in the lab), with 20% to 30% efficient modules being very common. But I guess if land use isn't an issue, the algae could potentially be cheaper on a dollars per watt basis? Floating algae farms in the oceans and such.
