We report efficiencies of >24% being consistently achieved in mass-production of passivating-contact solar cells. Furthermore, the certified efficiency of cells from our pilot line has reached 25.3% with 730 mV open-circuit voltage. An analysis of the cell performance, including simulations, shows that the cells’ rear-side is nearly ideal, while there remains potential for further optimization of the front emitter and passivation.
