IEA SHC Task 60, Application of PVT Collectors, shows how a fruitful collaboration between industry and research can lead to a thorough analysis of current and future technological developments. Besides developing a series of standardised key performance indicators to assess the technical and environmental benefits of PVT, the group used suppliers’ sales data to identify new market opportunities while also highlighting different PVT best practice examples, such as the Tenerife-based hotel shown in the photo. Following the end of the three-year task, the PVT specialists have now published a Technology Position Paper that summarises the lessons learned from different projects (see downloadable PDF below).
