A photovoltaic thermal hybrid solar system or pvt system for simplicity is a combination of photovoltaic pv and solar thermal components systems which produce both electricity and heat from one integrated component or system.
Hybrid solar thermal pv panels.
Of particular interest are solar energy systems based on hybrid photovoltaic thermal pv t collectors which can reach overall efficiencies of 70 or higher with electrical efficiencies up to 15 20 and thermal efficiencies in excess of 50 depending on the conditions.
Photovoltaic thermal collectors typically abbreviated as pvt collectors and also known as hybrid solar collectors photovoltaic thermal solar collectors pv t collectors or solar cogeneration systems are power generation technologies that convert solar radiation into usable thermal and electrical energy pvt collectors combine photovoltaic solar cells which convert sunlight into electricity.
