Oxford PV was established in 2010 as a spin-out from Professor Henry Snaith’s lab at the University of Oxford. Today, our research and development site in Oxford, UK, and our pilot and production line near Berlin, Germany enable the accelerated transfer of our technology into industrial-scale perovskite-on-silicon tandem solar cell manufacturing.
Co-founded by Professor Henry Snaith and Kevin Arthur
