The 3,000-hour stability gap makes me skeptical of perovskite timelines

Every few months there's a press release claiming perovskite solar is "2-3 years from commercial deployment." The 3,000-hour stability data doesn't support that. Oxford PV's tandem work is genuinely impressive, but tandem perovskite-on-silicon is a very different engineering problem than standalone perovskite. The silicon bottom cell's stability is solved — it's the perovskite top layer that needs to last 25 years. Has anyone tracked actual field deployment data for perovskite modules beyond pilot scale? Lab certifications and real-world degradation rates have historically diverged significantly in photovoltaics.
