A solar generator (10) can include a photon-enhanced thermionic emission generator (20) with a cathode (22) to receive solar radiation (70). The photon-enhanced thermionic emission generator (20) can include an anode (24) that in conjunction with the cathode (22) generates a first current (26) and waste heat (28) from the solar radiation (70). A supplemental heat source (52) can provide a supplemental heat. A thermoelectric generator (30) can be thermally coupled to the anode (24) and can convert the waste heat (28) from the anode (24) and the supplemental heat into a second current (36). A circuit can connect to the photon-enhanced thermionic emission generator (20) and to the thermoelectric generator (30) and can combine the first and the second currents (26, 36) into an output current (16).
