It depends how you’re defining it. 95% of all wavelengths that hit it being converted is impossible, because solar panels only work within certain spectral ranges, but it’s theoretically possible, although technically difficult, to have 95% of all relevant wavelength photons converted into electricity.
Yeah, that’s a bit of a misleading headline.
Yea. 95% efficient panel is Nobel prize level of story, making it look like a roofing tile would not even be a bullet point in the story
It’s also a physical impossibility iirc
I think plants are pretty close?
