This project aimed to develop a new solar photovoltaic/thermal (PV/T) system, which has higher overall efficiency, lower cost, and better monitoring and control system than existing systems. Prof. Manika was the Principle Investigator for the business side of the project (funded by EPSRC) and led the team based at Queen Mary Innovation. She provided expertise on environmental behaviour change, technology adoption and business modeling to develop the business and commercialisation plan of the new environmentally-friendly PV/T system.
The video below provides an overview of the project's aims and prototype, and introduces the research team.
