This paper offers a theoretical and experimental examination of the concurrent production of electricity and heat using photovoltaic thermal (PV/T) technology. The efficiency performance of the PV/T system is meticulously analyzed using MATLAB/Simulink software environments. Notably, the proposed PV/T system shows reliable performance, and its validity is confirmed through experimental validation on a test stand with a single PV/T panel positioned at a 45-degree angle to the horizontal and a 0-degree azimuth angle. The measurements were conducted during the summer season, and two models were suggested to calculate the overall efficiency of the PV/T system. The variance between the results obtained from the two models was minimal, below 5%. For the examined panel type, the following average values were derived: electrical efficiency = 12.01%, thermal efficiency = 47.21%, and overall efficiency = 59.23%.

“…The hybrid PVT system was first recommended by Kern and Russel [24] in the middle of the 1970s. The issue was addressed in response to the problem of falling solar efficiency with an increase in cell temperature [25]. Most of the solar energy is wasted as heat if this waste heat is not collected/converted in the photovoltaic energy conversion system.…”

“…For both residential and commercial heating, a liquid or gas is used to extract thermal energy for daily use. PVT technology improves the energy efficiency of photovoltaic technology by recovering temperature gained in the solar panels as low temperature heat radiation, thus, this is how the efficiency of electrical energy conversion is increased [25].…”

Hybrid PVT solar systems offer an innovative approach that allows solar energy to be used to simultaneously generate thermal and electrical energy. It is still a challenge to develop an energy-efficient hybrid PVT system. The aim of this work is to develop a mathematical model, investigate the system’s performance based on parameters, include sensitivity analysis in the upper layer mainly photovoltaic part, and provide an efficient and innovative system. Performance analysis of the hybrid system is obtained by establishing a mathematical model and efficiency analysis. The electrical model and thermal model of the hybrid system is also obtained by appropriate and complete mathematical modeling. It establishes a good connection of the system in the context of electrical analysis and power generation. The parameters variation impact and sensitivity analysis of the most important parameters, namely, irradiance, ambient temperature, panel temperature, wind speed, and humidity in the PV panel section, are also obtained using a MATLAB model. The results show the effective increase or decrease in the electrical power and sensitiveness in the output of the system due to this modification. Related MPP values as a result of these parameters variation and their impact on the overall output of the hybrid PVT system are also analyzed.
