“…Since the publication of the first PVT model in 1978 by Florschuetz [4], research on PVT collectors have been carried out intensively. PVT collector has been studied from various aspects with many review papers, such as; historical development and improvement [[5], [6], [7], [8], [9]], general and technological applications [[10], [11], [12], [13], [14]], method of fabrication and integration [15,16], performance analysis with simulations and experiments [17], economical assessment [18], environmental issues [19], and etc. As seen for the PVT collector fabrication and integration method, there are only 2 review papers available online.…”

The hybrid photovoltaic-thermal system has shown great progress. Electrical energy is produced from PV panels while thermal energy is produced via a working fluid carried through the panels. In this paper, the vertical PV/T is introduced using working fluids such as air and liquid, which serve to control the excess temperature of the PV panels as well as to collect heat to be made available as thermal energy. Installations of PV/T systems on building façades, as well as integration with other technologies such as heat pipe and heat pump are also discussed. Current studies of such building integration technologies are also explored, including the scale of application. This study aims to provide constructive information which can be used in future development of building facades for large-scale applications, to contribute to future sustainable development. Practical application: This study helps researchers and engineers who are considering photovoltaic thermal systems for building façades to have better understanding of its effect on electrical and thermal energy – for space heating, fresh air supply and hot water supply – using an active building envelope.

“…The overall conversion efficiency of PV cell reduces with the rising in temperature [10]. The maximum temperature in a PV system in field application is in the range of 80-150 ºC [11]. A few of the previous researchers have focused on utilization of heat in Photo-Voltaic Thermal (PVT) systems; however, there is still an appreciable scope for engineering research and technology development so as to recover the untapped and unutilized heat energy.…”

The photovoltaic system converts solar radiation into electricity. The output of the solar photovoltaic systems is strongly depending on the operating cell temperature. The power output of photovoltaic system reduces as the operating cell temperature increases. Several techniques have been reported in the literature to maintain the low operating temperature of the solar cell by utilizing module heat for separate thermal application. Integration of photovoltaic thermoelectric (PV-TE) system is one of these techniques. In these PV-TE systems, the hot junctions of thermoelectric modules are coupled with the photovoltaic. The thermoelectric module uses heat from PV system and generates additional power. This PV-TE system not only generates more power but also improves the PV efficiency. The present article reports a comprehensive review of latest developments in the PV-TE systems. A detailed classification, key outcomes of published research and the future research scope are discussed in this article.
