1. Introduction Cadmium Telluride (CdTe) thin film solar cells have many advantages, including a low-temperature coefficient (−0.25 %/°C), excellent performance under weak light conditions, high absorption coefficient (10 5 cm⁻ 1), and stability in high-temperature environments.
SETO released the Cadmium Telluride PV Perspective Paper in January 2025, outlining the state of CdTe PV technology and SETO’s priorities to reduce costs, address materials availability, and support the scale-up of CdTe within the domestic utility-scale PV market. A large-scale solar array in Colorado with CdTe modules.
Cadmium telluride (CdTe) thin-film PV modules are the primary thin film product on the global market, with more than 30 GW peak (GW p) generating capacity representing many millions of modules installed worldwide, primarily in utility-scale power plants in the US.
The manufacturing process for cadmium telluride modules can be split into 4 main steps: Cadmium and tellurium are byproducts of mining operations for zinc and copper, respectively. The waste from these mining processes have so far produced more than enough Cd and Te, so no extra mining is needed.
