This study focus on three existing technologies groups (wafer, thin film and organic). We find that earlier projections of third-generation (high-efficiency, low-cost), thin-film technologies have not yet emerged, since “third-generation” technologies currently have low-cost but also low-efficiency. We further find the best advances in energetic performance to date come from thin film technology.},
