2024 Oxford Solar Research Symposium

Come and join us in Oxford the week after the EUPVSEC conference! The symposium aims to foster collaboration between Australian and UK institutes on topics including crystalline silicon solar cells, perovskites and tandems. 

The symposium will run over two days, with a full schedule of talks on each, ranging from fundamental materials science to industrial manufacturing concerns. This will allow for wide ranging discussions that will undoubtedly spill over into some of Oxford’s most historic pubs. Our hope is that this will promote knowledge exchange and strengthen ties between Australia and UK researchers.
