Abstract

Solar energy has great potential to be a key player in the renewable energy industry. In this study, the fabrication of a lead perovskite solar cell and a dye-sensitized solar cell (DSSC) from waste materials were carried out. The lead perovskite precursor was synthesized from a depleted lead-acid car battery while the dye that used to colour the dye-sensitized titanium dioxide-coated FTO glass substrate was made from expired blueberries and wild mulberries. Titanium dioxide substrate thickness was found to have a direct impact on the cell efficiency. Standard solar cell characterization techniques such as current-voltage and spectral response measurements were employed to evaluate the cell performance.
