In this paper, we provide a comprehensive overview of the state-of-the-art in hybrid PV-T
collectors and the wider systems within which they can be implemented, and assess the …

Global warming is the most serious problem humanity faces in the twenty-first century. To
avoid additional global warming, the world must transition away from fossil fuels and toward …

Photovoltaic-thermal (PVT) collectors can be applied in order to concurrently generation of
electrical and thermal energy. In the present study, a vertical hybrid PVT solar dryer has …

Solar water heaters (SWHs) are primarily used to generate hot water to meet daily needs in
domestic and industrial applications. Due to its technical and economic practicality, solar …

Photovoltaic-thermal (PVT) systems are sustainable applications that allows to produce
thermal and electrical energies simultaneously. In this work, a sustainable solar drying …

Electrical and thermal energy can be generated simultaneously by using photovoltaic-
thermal (PVT) systems. Also, electrical efficiency can be enhanced by cooling the PV panel …

A hybrid solar photovoltaic-thermal collector is the combination of a solar thermal unit and a
photovoltaic panel for the simultaneous generation of heat and electricity. In these systems …

The daily increasing energy demand combined with global environmental issues has
promoted the development of a photovoltaic thermal (PV/T) system with onsite electrical and …

The concept of integrating cooling systems with photovoltaic-thermal (PVT) collectors is not
new, although it has yet to be widely commercialized. Such systems have the potential to …

Because of the low outflow temperature of the conventional photovoltaic thermal systems
and lack of electrical production of the solar thermal collectors, a novel combined system is …
