A new solar cell could generate electricity underwater

Scientists have developed a new solar cell that can generate electricity underwater using perovskite material, which has shown promise in solar cells but has a major drawback: it degrades quickly when exposed to water. To overcome this challenge, the researchers used a special coating to protect the perovskite material, allowing it to last for several weeks underwater. This breakthrough could lead to the widespread use of solar power in aquatic environments, such as ocean-based renewable energy systems.
