Solar energy can be converted into electrical energy using photovoltaic (PV) and thermoelectric generators (TEG). In order to increase the effectiveness of energy absorption, a hot mirror or cold mirror spectrum separator is used. In this study, a simulation was carried out to see the effect of the cold mirror and hot mirror spectrum separator on the performance of the PV-TEG hybrid. Simulations are carried out using the LabVIEW program. The standard for the solar radiation spectrum used is AM1.5D. The incoming radiation is transmitted using a Fresnel lens to make it more focused and then transmitted to a cold mirror or hot mirror, where the spectral irradiance will be halved. Spectral irradiance with a wavelength of 400-690 nm will be directed to PV and a wavelength of 710-1150 nm will be directed to TEG. From the PV-TEG hybrid modeling and simulation using the LabVIEW program, the resulting power and efficiency are 240.635 W/m2 and 27% respectively for cold mirror and 228.835 W/m2 and 25.76% for hot mirror.
