This article describes a novel photovoltaic/thermal (PV/T) water heating system. Through in- corporating a loop-heat-pipe (LHP) and a heat pump, the system can essentially maximise the electrical return of PV panel, and simultaneously produce a reasonable amount of heat. This system can therefore harvest larger amount of solar energy and enable enhanced system perfor- mance. It is expected that such dedicated technology could become the next generation of solar driven heating system and enable a significant reduction of building’s carbon footprint.
