- Additional information
- Resulting from collaboration between Nottingham, Nottingham Ningbo Campus (China) and the University of Wollongong (Australia); the impact of high solar radiation on solar PV cell efficiencies is investigated by a unique approach of integrating thermoelectric generators (TEG) and phase change materials (PCM) for enhancing the efficiencies solar PV cells. Relatively higher power output was achieved, and the key scientific and technical barriers were established for further improvement towards future commercialisation.
