This project develops a hybrid system that integrates concentrating photovoltaic technology with a supercritical Organic Rankine Cycle. The goal is to enhance electricity generation efficiency while managing heat from solar cells, making solar energy more competitive.
In concentrating photovoltaic systems (CPV) the incident solar radiation is multiplied by a factor equal to the concentration ratio.
The electricity production per cell area is increasing almost linear with the concentration ratio.
Concentration on PV cells surface, directly results in a proportional temperature increase, deteriorating the performance of the cells.
To cope with this effect, in some configurations the cells are cooled and the removing heat is then used for other purposes, like fo…
