Electrical and thermal performance comparison between PVT-ST and PV-ST systems (2021)
Journal Article
Han, Z., Liu, K., Li, G., Zhao, X., & Shittu, S. (2021). Electrical and thermal performance comparison between PVT-ST and PV-ST systems. Energy, 237, Article 121589. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.energy.2021.121589

Both photovoltaic (PV), and photovoltaic thermal (PVT) are technologies that use solar energy for power output. Combining them with solar thermal (ST) can enable the generation of electricity as well as high-temperature hot water. In this study, The...
