Over the following ten years, it is anticipated that the market share of bifacial solar cells would rise due to the increased power produced per area. In bifacial solar cells more dye molecules are stimulated and more carriers are produced as a result of the sunlight being irradiated from both the front and back simultaneously, increasing short-circuit current density and, consequently, overall conversion efficiency. The main components of Bifacial dye sensitized solar cell (BFDSSC) include titanium dioxide/metal oxide-based photo anode, dye, an electrolyte and a counter electrode. In evaluating the overall effectiveness of a BFDSSC device, the counter electrode plays an important role. Platinum is the most commonly used material for CE. Due to its high cost and limited availability, considerable efforts have been made to identify less expensive replacements. This article provides a concise overview of the materials used for counter electrodes in BFDSSCs with their merits and drawbacks.
