Flexible perovskite photovoltaic modules are demonstrated for the first time . Low‐temperature processes including UV‐irradiation of the mesoporous TiO 2 and atomic layer deposition of the compact TiO 2 helps deliver solar cells with 8.4% efficiency, good flexibility, and improved stability with respect to scaffoldless equivalents. Screen‐printable scaffolds and masking/laser patterning procedures enables fabrication of 3.1%‐efficient mesostructured perovskite modules on plastic substrates.
