PVT for Heat Pumps & Renewable Heating

PVT Solutions for Heat Pumps and Renewable Heating

It’s Time to Reduce Energy Cost. Explore PVT collector solutions for heat pump integration, ground source applications, system retrofits, and direct expansion configurations — each designed around a specific project type and system requirement.

PVT collector integrated with a heat pump system for combined electricity and thermal energy generation

PVT for Heat Pump

PVT collectors generate electricity while simultaneously collecting low-temperature thermal energy that supports heat pump operation, improving overall system efficiency without requiring additional roof area.

Retrofit ASHP​

Retrofit for Existing Air Source Heat Pumps: 
If an existing air source heat pump is consuming more electricity than expected, PVT collectors can be retrofitted as a preheating stage — reducing compressor workload without replacing the existing unit.

PVT collector array supporting ground source heat pump borehole regeneration

PVT for GSHP

PVT collectors support ground source heat pump systems through seasonal borehole regeneration, helping to stabilize ground temperatures and, in new installations, potentially reduce drilling requirements.

Residential Solar

PVT collectors heat domestic hot water in the same way a conventional solar thermal panel does, while generating electricity from the same roof area — combining two functions within a single system.

Direct expansion PVT collector with refrigerant-based thermal collection structure

Direct Expansion PVT

Direct Expansion PVT
In a direct expansion PVT system, refrigerant circulates directly through the panel’s rear absorber — eliminating the brine loop, intermediate heat exchanger, and outdoor fan unit used in conventional systems.

Why Solis PVT

Unlike traditional solar thermal systems, Solis PVT operates at low temperatures and is designed to work with heat pumps, not against them. We follow three core principles:

  • Hybrid solar technology (electricity + heat)
  • Compatible with standard European heat pump components
  • Optimized for low-temperature systems
  • Designed for long-term performance and reliability

What You Get

  • A cost-effective alternative to high-priced European PVT manufacturers
  • Compatibility with standard European heat pump systems
  • A stable low-temperature heat source for heat pump applications
  • Support for both residential and commercial project scales
