Performance and Economic Evaluation of a Hybrid Photovoltaic/Thermal Solar System in Northern China

A hybrid Photovoltaic/Thermal (PV/T) solar system integrates photovoltaic and solar thermal technologies into one single solar energy device, with dual generation of electricity and heat energy. The aim of the present study is to evaluate the potential for introduction of the PV/T technology into Northern China. For this purpose, outdoor experiments were conducted on a prototype of a PV/T water...

An Economic Analysis of Solar Photovoltaic Installations in Ireland

This paper conducted an economic analysis of the viability of five solar photovoltaic installations in County Tipperary, Ireland. Economic barriers along with policy recommendations are also discussed in detail in order to incentivise solar photovoltaics installations in Ireland. Using costings, solar photovoltaic energy output data and solar radiation data it is also investigated how Irish fin...

Optimal sizing of solar photovoltaic–Wind hybrid system

Increase in energy demand has made the renewable resources more attractive. Additionally, use of renewable energy sources reduces combustion of fossil fuels and the consequent CO2 emission which is the principal cause of global warming. The concept of photovoltaic-Wind hybrid system is well known and currently thousands of PV-Wind based power systems are being deployed worldwide, for providing ...
