Perovskite solar cells (PSCs) have a high potential in PV systems, with total power conversion efficiencies (PCEs) of single junction PSC reaching up to 25.52%. Because of the fast growth of PCE, PSCs has become the emerging star of the PV industry which piqued the attention of the research community. The fact that they can be used as a top cell in a tandem perovskiteSi design further adds to their potential. However, for perovskites to be effective in the solar industry, scalability and stability must also be considered. For a long time, the stability of PSCs has been a major source of concern. Thus, it is important to observe the performance of perovskite carefully in laboratory to understand the behavior under realworld, and thus operational, conditions. Therefore, this work is focused on characterizing several properties and behavior of perovskite devices important for these operational conditions: series resistance losses, behavior under different temperature and illumination levels and a protocol for maximum power point tracking (MMPT).
