Abstract: Solar roofing panels fulfill both building protective functions and energy generating ones. The composition of the substrate of the solar roofing panel includes secondary raw materials, which has a positive effect on the environment. To increase the electrical efficiency and also to obtain thermal energy in the form of warm water, it was proposed to create a photovoltaic thermal roofing panel. For this purpose, the presented article describes the method of creating a three-dimensional model of solar photovoltaic thermal modules in a computer-aided design system. The article also proposes a method for manufacturing a prototype body for a solar roofing panel, manufactured using additive technologies, which will significantly reduce costs at the initial stage of creating a prototype due to the possibility of operational changes to a three-dimensional model followed by printing a modified and optimized model. To reduce the number of photovoltaic cells and the cost of a solar roofing panel, it is proposed to use a solar concentrator in the panel.
