The PV cell efficiencies of the three kinds of solar panels (Traditional PV Panel, PV/FGM and PV/TE/FGM) under irradiation of 750 W/m 2 reach 12.6%, 16.6% and 16.0% [109]. And the PV/TE/HW system is superior to PV/HW and traditional PV systems, which can generate 30% higher output electrical power.
Tervo et al. propose a solid-state heat engine for solar-thermal conversion: a solar thermoradiative-photovoltaic system. The thermoradiative cell is heated and generates electricity as it emits light to the photovoltaic cell. Combining these two devices enables efficient operation at low temperatures, with low band-gap materials, and at low optical …
