Abstract :
This work is concerned about using PVT solar system with air-conditioning system. This system is the first development of PVT air conditioning system in Thailand. The electricity produced from a-Si PV array is connected into grid by using DC/AC inverter. Hot water from the system is supplied to 20 RT adsorption chiller machine for producing cold water. Present estimated electricity produced from the system about 8,000 kWh per year. The combination of PVT system with adsorption chiller is the way to improve using of energy efficiently
