Comparison of two-sided tandem cells with single-sided tandem cells
Researchers at KAUST University in Saudi Arabia have developed a bifacial solar cell using heterojunction silicon and perovskite. They achieved a conversion rate of 25.2%. They tested with five different perovskite bandgaps of 1.59, 1.62, 1.65, 1.68 and 1.7 eV.

Confirmation, tandem cells reduce average energy costs
According to German scientists from the Fraunhofer ISE and the HZB, in almost all cases, perovskite-silicon tandem cells reduce solar costs below what could be achieved with silicon alone.
Fraunhofer evaluated the performance of different types of silicon cells
