Abstract:This paper establishes the concept of hybrid PV systems where the ratio of different photovoltaic (PV) technologies is optimized so that their combined output profile best matches user requirements. The method is presented and applied to a case study where a two‐axis tracking concentrating photovoltaic (CPV) and a single‐axis silicon photovoltaic (SiPV) system installed at a sub‐tropical location in Australia, are to power the production of hydrogen by electrolysis. The analysis quantifies the performance of t… Show more
