“…The authors of [56] emphasized that research must be conducted to assess the feasibility and viability of solar thermal energy at low temperatures. The author of [46] evaluated the potential of TEGs on shingle, focusing on the effect of solar radiation on temperature differences. The result indicates that the output power is 65.22 µW at 138 Ω from the experiment, with a temperature difference at a TEG of 3 • C. However, the research only measured the open-circuit voltage of the TEG.…”

Harvesting energy from solar radiation in Malaysia attracts the attention of researchers to utilize the potential by ongoing improvement. Roofing material with low albedo absorbs the heat, that can then be harvested using a thermoelectric generator. Previous research only measured the open-circuit voltage with different thermoelectric generator configurations. Low power output limits the potential to be utilized. The low output power can be increased using a DC converter. However, the converter must be tuned concerning low- and high-voltage levels, bipolar, and the maximum power point tracking. Therefore, this paper presents a dual-level voltage bipolar (DLVB) thermal energy harvesting system. The circuit is tested at constant and various time intervals to evaluate the system’s functionality and performance. Experiment results show that the proposed harvesting system can boost from 0.6 and 1.6 V to achieve the optimum level. The mean efficiency of the harvesting circuit obtains 91.92% at various time intervals. Further, the field test result obtains output power from 1.45 to 66.1 mW, with the mean efficiency range of 89.62% to 92.98%. Furthermore, recommendations are listed for future research.

The development of renewable energy, especially solar, is essential for meeting future energy demands. The use of a wide range of the solar spectrum through the solar cells will increase electricity generation and thereby improve energy supply. However, solar photovoltaics (PV) can only convert a portion of the spectrum into electricity. Excess solar radiation is wasted by heat, which decreases solar PV cells’ efficiency and decreases their life span. Interestingly, thermoelectric generators (TEGs) are bidirectional devices that act as heat engines, converting the excess heat into electrical energy through thermoelectric effects through when integrated with a PV. These generators also enhance device efficiency and reduce the amount of heat that solar cells dissipate. Several experiments have been carried out to improve the hybrid PV-TEG system efficiency, and some are still underway. In the present study, the photovoltaic and thermoelectric theories are reviewed. Furthermore, different hybrid system integration methods and experimental and numerical investigations in improving the efficiency of PV-TEG hybrid systems are also discussed. This paper also assesses the effect of critical parameters of PV-TEG performance and highlights possible future research topics to enhancing the literature on photovoltaic-thermoelectric generator systems.
