The beauty of photovoltaic thermal systems(PVT solar collectors) lies in their versatility. From single-family homes to high-tech greenhouses, the applications are wide-ranging. PVT systems save space, reduce overall energy costs, and work well in climates where both electricity and heat are needed.
It’s a smart step forward in how we think about solar technology. PVT stands for Photovoltaic-Thermal, describing systems that generate both power and thermal energy from sunlight. In places with cold winters and sunny days, PVT systems make a lot of sense.
Combined photovoltaic - thermal system (PVT) is considered as an appealing invention in solar technology. In these systems, the heat from the photovoltaic modules is extracted using various techniques. The extracted heat is utilized in thermal systems separately. Fig. 2 shows the simplest form of the PVT system.
