Perovskite solar cells (PSCs) will eventually operate outdoors, subjected to diurnal cycles with varying irradiance and cell temperature throughout 24 h periods. Hereby, we show the PSC stability results from laboratory accelerated stress tests can not obviously suggest their stability in outdoor-like situations. Thus, to validate PSC outdoor stability, it is necessary to emulate outdoor conditions, for which we propose possible test scenarios.
