This study investigates the effectiveness of photovoltaic (PV)-phase change material (PCM) hybrid systems (HPV-PCM) in optimizing temperature control and electrical performance. A mathematical model based on energy balance equations was developed and numerically solved using the finite difference method (FDM), and simulations were carried out under the climatic conditions of Ouarzazate. The results of this study demonstrate that the incorporation of PCM with the PV panel effectively reduced its temperature by 10∘C and enhanced its electrical efficiency by 0.7% while increasing power output compared to a standalone PV panel.
