Abstract
Climate change is a worldwide recognized problem, and its mitigation identified as one of the most significant challenges. The way to achieve this purpose is to reduce greenhouse gases (GHG) emissions through the energy system using renewables. The change from an energy system based on fossil fuels to renewable sources-based one is necessary on which the world community agrees. A photovoltaic thermal (PV/T) panel is a system that can produce both electricity and thermal energy simultaneously in one integrated system. This paper deals with hybrid energy systems, specifically a hybrid system to produce power and thermal energy from solar sources consisting of photovoltaic thermal modules. The hybrid system consists of 7 hybrid photovoltaic panels installed on the roof of the laboratory. This paper presents a study for experimental data obtained from a measurement campaign of the thermal and electrical behavior of a PV/T system in single and series models.

Summary
There is a critical desire to change the energy supply, since this involves a decrease of the emissions associated with fossil fuel that leads to more extensive environmental and health concerns. The most significant challenge development of the solar photovoltaic industry is High production cost and Low efficiency of photovoltaic power generation. Commercial PV electrical conversion efficiency is of 6 to 15%.[4] Improving the efficiency performance of solar energy collection by developing a hybrid photovoltaic/thermal solar collector has been investigated by several researchers [5,6,7,8,9,10]. Alzaabi et al [14] Presented a design to develop a PV panel's electrical efficiency utilizing a water hybrid PV/T system. The panels are electrically installed in series, the previous studies did not compare to series, and a single photovoltaic/thermal system include experimental or numerical investigations from the electrical and thermal energy. This research aims to estimate the electrical and thermal production in two different modes for the dwelling
