Abstract: With demand for renewable energy growing, concentrator photovoltaic thermal hybrids have great potential. Maximising concentration ratios through the deployment of multi-stage optics can yield high power outputs from multi-junction solar cells. To prevent damaging thermal stress and to enable extraction of thermal energy, a capable cooling system is necessary.
