Currently, afforestation, energy conservation, emissions reduction, and other measures have been adopted to offset the total amount of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gas emissions generated by countries, businesses, products, act. Solar cells, which convert ecologically friendly and inexhaustible solar energy into electrical power using the PV effect, are expected to meet all the global energy demand. To effectively capture sunlight for power generation, many types of light-harvesting semiconductors have been invented, produced, and commercialized. Among them, crystalline si. Due to the unique advantages of perovskites, which include low cost, anti-radiation properties, light sensitivity, light weight, flexibility, and high efficiency, PSCs have wide boundaries of application and have been shown to be revolutionary in various applications, including PV plants, portable devices, aerospace, military devices, building integration photovoltaics (BIPVs), and indoor photovoltaics (IPVs) (Fig. 3). In this section, we briefly discuss the opportunities and challenges of PSCs in these application scenarios (Table 1).Table 1. Opportunities and challenges of PSCs in various application scenarios.In this era of striving to achieve carbon neutrality, PSCs have undergone unprecedented rapid development. The emergence of perovskite-based tandem solar cells brings a significant opportunity to break through the theoretical limit of efficiency. The continuous improvement of encapsulation technology has effectively suppressed the problems of devic.
