"A husband and wife duo are half of a four-strong Australian team, including
the globally renowned “father of PV,” to win the ‘Nobel for engineering’ for
their work in accelerating the global shift to renewable solar power.
The 2023 Queen Elizabeth Prize for Engineering (QEPrize) was awarded for work
on Passivated Emitter and Rear Cell (PERC) solar photovoltaic technology, an
innovation that allowed solar photovoltaic panels become a low cost energy
source for millions around the world.
Aihua Wang and her husband Jianhua Zhao won the prize, alongside Professor
Andrew Blakers from the Australian National University, and their PhD
supervisor and giant of solar research, the University of NSW Professor Martin
Green. They will share £500,000 in prize money"
