About VirtuPVT

VirtuPVT combines the best of solar PV and solar thermal collectors. Naked Energy's unique PV lamination process applies a 22% efficient mono-crystalline PERC cell to the surface of a high efficiency absorber plate. Housed within the vacuum tube, the combined absorber generates electricity and heat up to 75°C.

Unrivaled performance
Easy to install
Designed for commercial scale
Our approach

Virtu's unique array geometry allows for a greater utilisation factor of available roof area.

The bespoke mounting system and low profile tubes with integrated reflectors enable over 85% of roof area to be occupied, compared to 40% with conventional solar. This maximises the amount of energy that can be produced from a customer roof and achieve market leading financial and carbon savings.
