Photovoltaic systems convert sunlight directly into electricity using solar panels. They are efficient, scalable, and ideal for residential and commercial applications, supporting the transition to renewable energy.
Solar thermal systems harness the sun's heat to generate energy. These systems excel in heating applications, such as water heating, offering a sustainable solution for specific industrial and domestic needs.
Photovoltaics focus on electricity production, while thermal energy systems emphasize heat. Both are sustainable, with photovoltaic systems often preferred for power generation and thermal systems for heating purposes.
Selecting between photovoltaics and thermal energy depends on energy needs, costs, and efficiency. Combining both technologies can maximize solar potential for a versatile and sustainable energy solution.
