Abstract

A hybrid solar panel is described (1) comprising a layer of photovoltaic cells (4) cooled by a cooling system comprising one or more heat pipe devices (16) each including an evaporation side (18) and a condensation side (20) for a thermovector fluid circulating within them. The fluid flowing in the manifold member (10) is heated by the thermovector fluid in the vapour phase which condenses inside the condensation side (20) of each heat pipe device. The layer (2) of photovoltaic cells (4) and the thermal exchange layer (6) are clamped into a back panel (2) by means of a framework preferably made of metal profiled bars. The thermal exchange layer (6) is a metal component wherein the heat pipe devices (16) are made by soldering two sheets of metallic material using roll -bond technology.
