U.S-based Halldata Solar is a printing company that prints a wide range of specialized labels and tags for a variety of specialized applications. It aims to use its 30 years of printing knowledge to manufacture flexible perovskite solar films.

The company has many printing technologies in its 22,000sf facility in eastern Washington State that give it the experience to create perovskite solar cells:

•  Roll-to-Roll Printing
•  Flatbed Screenprinting
•  Flexography
•  Plate Making
•  Convection and UV Curing
•  Conductive Inks
•  Slot Die & Rod Coating

​Halldata wishes to turn university research into working solar cells, and is working to establish a thin film perovskite solar cell manufacturing facility near Hanford, USA.

Halocell Energy is focused on developing perovskite solar cell technology. Halocell Energy was renamed in 2023 from Greatcell Energy.

Halocell is dedicated to advancing the performance, stability, and scalability of perovskite solar cells to make them a viable and competitive alternative to traditional silicon-based photovoltaics.

Halocell uses halide elements in its perovskites along with many other aspects of cutting-edge materials science to harvest light across various settings and commercial applications. It develops products for indoor devices, outdoor devices and industrial assets.

China-based BOE is a large display maker. In March 2024, BOE established a new company called Hefei BOE Solar Energy Tech and started its research on solar cells with perovskite materials.

Hefei BOE Solar Energy is located in BOE's B9 factory and plans to have an R&D lab with total investment around CNY 91 M. This project gained green light from local government in May 2024 and is working to build a 300mm x 300mm R&D line which is able to produce 22500 sheets annually. 2 months later, in  July 2024, a 2nd construction was announced as an expansion plan with total cost around CNY 871 M. According to the official announcement, a pilot line will be built in the expansion plan with designed capacity around 912500 sheets of solar cell annually.

Although the Company is planning significant solar cell capacity, BOE claimed those solar cells are merely for R&D and exhibition use without any external sales.

Hiking PV, AKA Shenzhen Hiking PV, is a company dedicated to the R&D, manufacturing, and application of advanced energy technology. 

It develops perovskite-silicon tandem solar technology that aims to "facilitate the further development of the trillion-dollar photovoltaic industry. This technology can greatly improve the power conversion efficiency of solar cells with low-cost, thus enhancing the economics of photovoltaic technology", according to the Company's website.

In February 2024, Shenzhen Hiking PV unveiled plans to set up a joint venture with a state-run company to build gigawatt-level perovskite/polysilicon tandem cell and panel production capacity in Guangdong province. 

France-based Holosolis is a solar developer that was founded by three European entities: EIT Innoenergy, a clean-tech investor based in the Netherlands and financed by the EU; IDEC Group, a real estate developer in France; and TSE, a prominent solar energy producer in France and a leader in agrivoltaics. 

Holosolis is committed to manufacturing energy efficient modules using the latest photovoltaic technologies, with the lowest carbon footprint and highest social standards. It plans to build a state-of-the-art module gigafactory in Sarreguemines, Moselle, France, that will start production in 2025. It aims to produce 10 million PV panels per year.

Holosolis will accelerate innovation across the entire photovoltaic value chain, from raw materials to recycling, with products designed for the following markets:

* Residential rooftops
* Industrial and commercial rooftops
* Agrivoltaics
* Utility scale

In 2023, German silver metallization paste maker Heraeus acquired an unspecified stake in HoloSolis. Also, Germany’s Fraunhofer Institute for Solar Energy (ISE) said that it will support HoloSolis in setting up its planned manufacturing facility.

Anhui Huasun Energy Co., Ltd ( "Huasun Energy"), founded in July 2020, is a technological innovation enterprise specialized in the R&D and large-scale manufacturing of ultra-high efficiency N-type silicon heterojunction (HJT) solar wafer, cell and module. In 2023, it was implied that the Company is also working on heterojunction-perovskite tandem solar cells.

As one of the industrial pioneers of heterojunction technology in China, Huasun has delivered over 2GW of HJT products to over 30 countries around the globe. Huasun owns 12GW capacity of high-efficiency HJT products, ranking as the largest HJT manufacturer in the world. The company plans to achieve 40GW HJT capacity by the end of 2025.

In November 2023, Huasun Energy announced a fund raise and plans to develop heterojunction-perovskite tandem solar cells.
