Comment on Oxford claims the world record for solar panel efficiency

I’ll be honest, this article has me really confused on what the actual achievement was. They say they got a 25 % peroveskite/si cell, but that they already manufacture 28% efficient peroveskite/si cells at scale.
The current world record for peroveskite/ si cells is HZB’s 32.5% record, and the world record record for any cell material is FhG-ISE’s 47.6% four+ junction cells, so i’m not sure what this record was in.

The record is for panel efficiency, whereas the 28%, 32.5%, and 47.6% values you refer to are about solar cell efficiency. energytheory.com/solar-cell-vs-solar-panel/
