High- and low-concentration hybrid concentrator photovoltaic module toward maximizing solar energy utilization

Open Access Open Access

Abstract

A hybrid concentrator photovoltaic (CPV) module that combines the high concentration of direct sunlight and low or non-concentration of diffuse sunlight, to maximize solar energy utilization, is introduced. Further, its potential is experimentally demonstrated.
