  2. Solar thermal energy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_thermal_energy

    Solar thermal energy (STE) is a form of energy and a technology for harnessing solar energy to generate thermal energy for use in industry, and in the residential and commercial sectors. Solar thermal collectors are classified by the United States Energy Information Administration as low-, medium-, or high-temperature collectors.

    In this system the solar thermal panel performs the function of the low temperature heat source and the heat produced is used to feed the heat pump's evaporator. [141] The goal of this system is to get high COP and then produce energy in a more efficient and less expensive way.

  4. Thermophotovoltaic energy conversion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermophotovoltaic_energy...

    Thermophotovoltaic (TPV) energy conversion is a direct conversion process from heat to electricity via photons.A basic thermophotovoltaic system consists of a hot object emitting thermal radiation and a photovoltaic cell similar to a solar cell but tuned to the spectrum being emitted from the hot object.

    That is to say, the maximum operating temperatures for most PVT system are limited to less than the maximum cell temperature (typically below 100 °C). Nevertheless, two or more units of heat energy are still generated for each unit of electrical energy, depending on cell efficiency and system design.

  6. Solar thermal collector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_thermal_collector

    Solar air heating is a renewable energy heating technology used to heat or condition air for buildings or process heat applications. It is typically the most cost-effective of all the solar technologies, especially in large scale applications, and it addresses the largest usage of building energy in heating climates, which is space heating and ...

  7. Solar-cell efficiency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar-cell_efficiency

    Surface passivation is critical to solar cell efficiency. [48] Many improvements have been made to the front side of mass-produced solar cells, but the aluminium back-surface is impeding efficiency improvements. [49] The efficiency of many solar cells has benefitted by creating so-called passivated emitter and rear cells (PERCs).
