A solar electricity and heating system comprises at least one photovoltaic panel mountable above a sloped roof surface for providing photovoltaic electricity and providing heating a space between the panel and the roof surface. A heat conduction collector is positioned in the space between the panel and the roof surface for collecting air warmed by the panel. A closure system is mounted to at least two sides of the photovoltaic system for partially enclosing the space, which produces a chimney effect for the air heated by the panel. A liquid heat transfer system may be coupled to the collector for thermally coupling the collector to at least one of a heat storage system and a heat circulation system. A thermostat-activated pump may be provided for circulating liquid through the heat transfer system.
