Perovskite solar cells have achieved high efficiencies over 20%. Production costs of the perovskite solar cells are expected to drastically decrease by the solution based processes with a low temperature annealing under atmospheric. However, It is required not only to establish the process of the high efficiency solar cells but to ensure stability of the performance for practical use. Production processes of large area modules are also needed to be established. I will report on improvement of the stability under high temperature exposure, and fabrication of the modules with a 20 x 20 cm2 size. The stability of performance under high temperature exposure was improved by suppression of dopant diffusion from hole transport layers and phase changes of perovskite absorbers. The cell composed of (Cs, FA,MA)Pb(I,Cl)3 and PTAA showed a stable efficiency of 11% after exposure at 85 C for 1000 h. 20 x 20 cm2 size modules were fabricated using laser and mechanical scribing for monolithic series interconnection on the substrate. The 35 series connected module showed an efficiency of 12.6% with a Voc of 38.6 V.
