Photovoltaic thermal hybrid solar collector

OverviewPVT collector technologyPVT marketsPVT applicationsSee also

PVT collectors combine the generation of solar electricity and heat in a single component, and thus achieve a higher overall efficiency and better utilization of the solar spectrum than conventional PV modules. Photovoltaic cells typically reach an electrical efficiency between 15% and 20%, while the largest share of the solar spectrum (65% - 70%) is converted into hea
