Objective
Buildings need glazing that generates electricity without compromising daylight or colour neutrality. Metal-halide perovskites—thanks to tunable band gaps and excellent optoelectronic properties—are strong candidates for power-generating windows with high visible transmittance (AVT ≥ 80%). In particular, chloride-rich perovskites (Eg ≈ 3.0 eV) can harvest UV while transmitting visible light, yet current devices remain small-area (~1% PCE) and hard to scale. SHINE tackles the key bottlenecks—crystallisation control and interfacial charge transfer—by (i) establishing blade/slot-die processes that deliver highly uniform Cl-perovskite films with AVT ≥ 80% on 10×10 cm2 substrates, (ii) engineering deep-HOMO, low-absorption hole-transport layers with targeted passivation to minimise voltage losses, and (iii) demonstrating series-connected 100 cm² semi-transparent modules with PCE ≥ 2.2%, Voc ≥ 1.85 V, AVT ≥ 80%, and ISOS-L2 durability. Mechanistic insight will be obtained through in-depth characterization, including XRD for crystallographic analysis; SEM and AFM for surface and morphological mapping; PLQY and TRPL for probing recombination dynamics; and KPFM together with UPS for energy-level and work-function mapping—complemented by FTIR and ssNMR to elucidate chloride-related defect chemistry. Leveraging the host’s upscaling capability and the fellow’s expertise in Cl-based wide-bandgap perovskites, the project will deliver validated modules, open recipes/datasets/scripts, and clear exploitation routes for BIPV. In parallel, the fellow will gain advanced technical training, leadership and project-management experience, and exposure to the host’s extensive European industrial and academic network—substantially enriching their career trajectory and positioning them as a future leader in the field of renewable energy.

Net EU financial contribution. The sum of money that the participant receives, deducted by the EU contribution to its linked third party. It considers the distribution of the EU financial contribution between direct beneficiaries of the project and other types of participants, like third-party participants.
