Abstract

Hybrid solar PVT has the potential to become a major player in the renewable energy sector, but one of the main barriers is the lack of reliable data due to limited number of monitored PVT hybrid systems with proven thermal performance results. In order to address this issue, a statistical study was realized to analyze in-field performances of twenty-eight hybrid solar domestic hot water installations equipped with innovative non-overglazed PVT collectors in Western Europe (France, Switzerland and Portugal).
