{{considerations}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Lead toxicity==&lt;br /&gt;
{{sum|Likely problem|bad}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The best-performing perovskites are lead-based. This probably wouldn't be an issue for small electronics managed properly, but could maybe pose a major environmental hazard if [[rooftop solar|every rooftop were covered]] in these panels (which is roughly what would be needed to produce generate enough [[energy]] to replace all [[fossil fuels]]).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Mineral scarcity==&lt;br /&gt;
{{sum|Likely problem|bad}}&lt;br /&gt;
There are a few alternatives to lead-based perovskites - most involve tin and/or cesium, which are rarer metals than lead. If the goal is to replace most fossil fuels, resources might be far too scarce.{{qn}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Efficiency==&lt;br /&gt;
{{sum|Good|good}}&lt;br /&gt;
The best achievable efficiency is 33%, although this is difficult and expensive. 20% efficiency is probably a more realistic expectation,{{rn}} which would be comparable to other high-performing solar panels on the market (most of which are also mineral-intensive in other ways).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Scalability of manufacturing==&lt;br /&gt;
{{sum|Not good enough ''yet''}}&lt;br /&gt;
From Wikipedia: &amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;Perovskite solar cells are a very efficient solar energy converter and have excellent optoelectronic properties for photovoltaic purposes, but their upscaling from lab-sized cells to large-area modules is still under research.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Matteocci, Fabio; Vesce, Luigi; Kosasih, Felix Utama; Castriotta, Luigi Angelo; Cacovich, Stefania; Palma, Alessandro Lorenzo; Divitini, Giorgio; Ducati, Caterina; Di Carlo, Aldo (17 July 2019).
