Conclusions Photovoltaics have a wide range of applications from stand alone to grid connected, free standing to building integrated. It can be easily sized due to its modularity from small scale (portable) to solar field scale. It is a source of clean energy with no GHG at generation, transformation and usage.
A photovoltaic/thermal (PV/T) system converts solar radiation into electrical and thermal energy. The incorporation of thermal collectors with PV technology can increase the overall efficiency of a PV system as thermal energy is produced as a by-product of the production of electrical energy.
