"Turkey’s Solimpeks Wins Certification for Hybrid Solar Panels

Hybrid solar panels
The sky’s the limit: Solimpeks’ hybrid solar systems produce both electricity and hot water.
I recently installed a fan in my roof to pump out the hot air from the attic and help keep the house cooler during the summer. I also have a solar panel on the roof to produce hot water. It seems logical that the solar energy harnessed for the water heater should also be able to provide electricity to operate the fan, right? Well, it turns out it’s not that simple – and until I install a separate photovoltaic (PV) solar panel on the roof, the fan will be plugged into an electric socket instead."
