Abstract

In this paper an idea and a realization of a hybrid solution for photovoltaic and photothermal conversion is presented. Proposed solar hybrid system integrates photovoltaic (PV) module and solar thermal collector in one device, which provides direct conversion of solar energy into electricity and heat simultaneously. Origins of the idea and proposal of the solution are presented. Performance and operation of both integrated system and stand alone devices have been measured and analyzed. Obtained results show the advantage of synergy for combined thermo electrical appliance. Future development and possible industrial applications are proposed.
