Abstract Flexible emerging photovoltaic technologies, such as organic and perovskite photovoltaics, hold great potential for integration into tents, wearable electronics, other portable applications. Recently, Fukuda et al. (2024) propose a bending test protocol standardizing the mechanical performance characterization of flexible solar cells, focusing on 1% strain over 1 000 cycles. This marked an important step toward establishing consistency good practices in literature. However, even with this unified protocol, accurately comparing flexibility cells is hindered by variated influence parameters like thickness, radius, power conversion efficiency ( PCE ) evolution during testing.
