Liability of Photovoltaic-Thermoelectric Hybrid Devices
Abstract: Photovoltaic (PV) modules suffer from the exalted temperature in case of outdoor performance. The losses are about more than 25% depending on the arrangement of the materials on the top. If thermoelectric (TE) converter is integrated with the PV modules, then we can form PV-TE hybrid module where TE converter can produce additional electricity due to the difference of the temperature. Nowadays, it is possible to enhance the efficiency by …
