About

There are two configurations of the PV-TE systems, in the first configuration PV and TE are thermally connected, the structure being sandwich-type and in the second one, the two components are not thermally connected. In both cases, there are more configurations.

PV, consuming energy TE (working as Peltier element) or as an electrical energy generator TEG (working on Seebeck effect), but at the same time cooling the PV. In the case of the separate use of PV and TE, the structure of the hybrid system can contain a beam splitter, BS. This can present transmittance of the infrared spectrum, and UV and VIS reflection, or holographic splitter. The best solution for the PV-TE hybrid system with a beam splitter is to be used in the concentrated light provided by the Fresnel lens. The efficiency of this system can be increased if the vacuum enclosure is used. Another possibility is for the photovoltaic panel to power the thermoelectric modules directly or using a storage device, to cool or heat the rooms.
