How Do Hybrid Solar Systems Work?

These systems, called solar photovoltaic thermal (shortened to PVT or PV-T) combine the two perfectly in one neat unit.

Hybrid solar panels contain PV cells that work by sending solar power to the inverter, which converts it into electricity. They also have solar collectors from the solar thermal system connected to pipes running through the structure. This makes the entire system more compact, which is great if you have limited roof space.

The solar collectors generate your domestic hot water supply while the PV cells provide power for your home (or business).

How Much Does A Hybrid Solar System Cost?

As an example, a 4kWp solar PV or solar thermal system in Thornaby-on-Tees might cost between £5,000 and £8,000, whereas a hybrid solar system would be nearer to £10,000. The final cost would depend on the system capacity, the number of panels, the brand, and whether you include a battery backup system.

Are Hybrid Solar Panels Worth It?

At Skylamp Solar in Thornaby-on-Tees, we believe that a solar PVT panel installation is an excellent investment for the future - in the right circumstances.

For example, if you are able to invest in a hybrid solar system that includes a backup battery to store energy, then you could make significant long-term savings.

And with a grid connection, you could sell any leftover energy back to the utility company at a profit under the SEG scheme*, helping you to break even a lot more quickly.

*The Smart Export Guarantee, a scheme that replaced the Feed-in Tariff in 2020. Under this scheme, any excess energy generated by your solar panels and kept in your battery storage can be sold to a participating energy supplier. Each one sets its own rates, so it's worth shopping around.

Heat pumps are also a great addition to this system, as they increase efficiency while reducing your reliance on energy companies.

Finally, while the initial cost of installing solar panels might seem high, these modern innovations are far more robust and don't require a lot of costly maintenance as some did in the past. They have an average lifespan of between twenty-five and forty years!

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between a hybrid solar system and a solar PV system?

Really the only major difference is the hybrid solar inverter, it's this new part that enables the combination of thermal solar panels and photovoltaic solar panels enabling both heated water and electricity generation.

Which hybrid solar system should I choose?

If you're uncertain, consider what exactly you want; what about an all-in-one hot water and electric solar installation? Do you want to upgrade your existing solar system to include a hybrid inverter? Maybe you like the sound of off-grid systems?
