The rapid spread of the Internet of Things (IoT) along with the development of innovative low-power electronic devices has also driven the development of indoor photovoltaics. In this paper, we propose a simple and economically feasible solution that can improve the efficiency of dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) under indoor light conditions by ~112%, without requiring a complex TiO2 photoanode architecture or the design of new dyes. The ball milling process of the TiO2 paste was optimized for indoor light conditions for the first time, both in terms of efficiency and production costs, by developing a rapid preparation method that can be used industrially for the application of DSSCs. A simple use of 12 mm diameter balls caused beneficial structural modifications, decreasing the size of the crystallites, and leading to a high OH generation on the TiO2 surface responsible for the improvement of energy conversion efficiency.
