  • Abstract
    The aim of this project is to develop a hybrid system to increase efficiency of electricity generation. Two sources of energy are used in this project. One of the energy is solar, that converts radiant light to electrical energy and heat energy which will convert heat to electricity. Photovoltaic (PV) cell and thermoelectric (TE) module is used in this project as tools to capture and convert the energy to electrical energy. This innovation has no emission and requires less maintenance.
