Energy and Environmental Performance of Solar Thermal Collectors and PV Panel System in Renovated Historical Building

The major intent of this article was to determine the amount of energy received by two active systems used to convert solar radiation and to estimate their impact on reducing the emission of pollutants. Thermal solar collectors with an area of 51.36 m<sup>2</sup> and photovoltaic panels...
