Study on the integrated use of photovoltaic plants (PVT) for the production of electrical energy and heat using heat pumps (PN-PT)

Abstract

Every year, the use and application of photovoltaic systems in residential buildings are increasing for the purpose of producing electricity, especially in isolated areas or for those that lack energy. Photovoltaic systems to produce electricity are safer and more economical systems. Albania’s total energy problems include those related to renewable energies, both on the supply side and on the consumption side. In this paper, the topic of integrated photovoltaic systems of energy and heat production is addressed. The theoretical and experimental analysis of the behavior of the integrated Heat Pump – PVT system is very important to increase the efficiency of the use of renewable energies and therefore contribute to the decarbonization of the environment. The research carried out offers not only the increase in the rate of use of renewable energies but also the optimization of integrated PN-PVT schemes, which can be used in the housing sector.
