Evaluation of solar thermal vs solar PV for domestic applications in UK - PT7

Description Roof space and ground space can be used for solar energy capture. 2 different approaches are to use thermal collectors, or to use solar PV. This project is to investigate the relative performance for each for a domestic application, considering heat and power production when integrated with a high performance building with heat pump and thermal or battery storage. The project will investigate real performace based on case studies and also use modelling to evaluate the 2 options and draw some conclusion on the applicability of each. Key Objectives Complete a comparative analysis of solar thermal and solar PV systems for domestic application.
