Abstract [en]

Development of photovoltaic (PV)-derived hybrid power systems can overcome the weather-dependent elec-tricity production and increase the amount of dispatchable renewable energy generation. Herein, monolithic hybrid devices are developed via rational integration of high-performance semitransparent polymer solar cells (ST-PSCs) and liquid-solid triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs). High-performance PSCs with efficiencies of 17.4% for rigid and 15.7% for flexible devices are achieved. Further electrode modifications and integration of transparent TENGs synergistically balance the above-bandgap photon harvesting and transparency in a broad wavelength range (380 -1000 nm), yet significantly reduce the transmittance in the near-infrared wavelength range (1000 -2500 nm) of hybrid devices. The hybrid devices simultaneously provide high visible light transparency, good color fidelity, efficient heat resistance and possibility to integrate on rigid and flexible substrates. The hybrid devices attain a high solar conversion efficiency of 10.1% under 1 sun, indicating efficient light-to-electricity conversion (a maximum electrical power output: 101 W m-2) on sunny days. The hybrid devices can also generate a maximum electrical power output of 2.62 W m- 2 through waterdrop energy con-version, implying complementary green electricity production on rainy days. The controlled ambient tempera-ture and specific transmittance windows provided by the hybrid devices sustain plant growth and highlight their great potential in agricultural applications. Gratifyingly, this work demonstrates the first example of ST-PSC/ TENG hybrid systems for scaling up renewable power generation in different weather conditions, considering architectural and agricultural applications.
