Total Energy Solution Features & Advantages

SolarWall® PV/T cogeneration system produces
both pre-heated ventilation air & electricity. PV/T
is easily installed onto a building’s rooftop or wall
where it connects to the existing air handling and
electrical equipment. The combination of two solar
technologies improves the operating efficiency of a PV
system and significantly reduces the payback period.
• Accelerates PV system return on investment
• Total operating efficiency above 50%
• Cools / Increases PV panel performance
• Generates both electricity and heat energy
• Reduces operating costs
• Maximizes usable roof space
• Huge reduction in CO2 emissions
• Optimized for site conditions

SolarWall PV/ T ® Solar Air Heating
& Electricity

Capturing the Heat PV/T Rooftop

SolarWall PV/T uniformly removes the heat from the
backside of a PV panel. This cooling effect increases
the performance of the PV modules. The ‘waste heat’
is then channeled into the building’s traditional
heating system where it is used for space heating.

• Increases PV panel performance

• Captures heat energy for space heating Fact: 1ºC PV temperature rise equals
0.4% to 0.5% drop in electrical output

System Advantages PV/T Sloped Roof

SolarWall PV/T combines two renewable energy
technologies into one footprint. By generating
two forms of energy, the PV/T system accelerates
return on investment, greatly reduces a building’s
operating cost and displaces significant amounts
of CO2 emissions.

• Offsets heating & electricity costs Fact: A PV module produces 2 to 3 times

• Two technologies in one footprint more heat energy than electricity
