Abstract
A waste heat recovery system for a photovoltaic panel may include an open loop system and a closed loop system. The open loop system includes an electric insulator layer and a moisture collection layer. The moisture collection layer may collect moisture from condensation and to direct moisture away from the photovoltaic panel. The closed loop system may be positioned adjacent to the open loop system. The closed loop system may include a liquid transfer mat that has a plurality of tubes through which a liquid passes to absorb heat from the photovoltaic panel. The open loop system is configured to encourage heat transfer from the photovoltaic panel to the closed loop system.
