The project is led by German partners: the Helmholtz-Zentrum Berlin Institute and the manufacturer of solar cells and photovoltaic modules Q Cells.

The Pepperoni project (Pilot line for European Production of PEROvskite-Silicon taNdem modules on Industrial scale) is a four-year research and innovation project co-financed by the European Union within the Horizon Europe program and the Swiss State Secretariat for Education, Research and Innovation. The project focuses on the development of tandem perovskite-silicon solar cells. The aim of the project is to accelerate the development of tandem cells, their introduction to the market and the establishment of a pilot line as a basis for the introduction of new production capacities in Europe.
