Abstract :
Under a scientific and technical cooperation between CRF and Politecnico di Milano, the hybrid photovoltaic-thermal (PVT) facade of the FIAT Research Center (CRF) was realized near Turin in Italy. In the present work, a detailed analysis of monitored data on the thermal and electrical performances of hybrid solar facade is presented. Using the simulation model, an estimated data for annual energy (thermal and electrical) production from the solar facade is also shown. The validation of simulation model with the experimental data is also carried out.
