Can't but feel perovskite to be a fad no different than DSSCs before.
And I say it as someone who's researched them at EPFL in Michael Graetzel's laboratory.
I don't think the technology will ever be efficient and most importantly stable as needed.

"Recycling of glass does not save much energy or valuable raw material and does not reduce air or water pollution significantly."
Perovskite is a family a materials by the way so many of these issues can be sortened out.
I'm overall just skeptic.
Have no knowledge in this field but if your solar panel material degrades in light that would seem to be an insurmountable problem to me.
Or if you get it slow enough.
