Micro-Cogeneration with a Fresnel Solar Concentrator
The technical and economic sustainability of photovoltaic (PV) systems is heavily affected by the cost and performances of the adopted PV cells. Solar concentrators represent an effective alternative to reduce the solar cell surface and, at the same time, to increase the global conversion efficiency. Such systems include optic elements to concentrate the solar radiation to a small area where hi...
متن کاملSolar concentrator modules with silicone-onglass Fresnel lens panels and multijunction cells.
High-efficiency multijunction (MJ) solar cells, being very expensive to manufacture, should only be used in combination with solar concentrators in terrestrial applications. An essential cost reduction of electric power produced by photovoltaic (PV) installations with MJ cells, may be expected by the creation of highly-effective, but inexpensive, elements for optical concentration and sun track...
متن کاملFresnel lens solar concentrator derivations and simulations
Fresnel lens solar concentrators continue to fulfill a market requirement as a system component in high volume cost effective Concentrating Photovoltaic (CPV) electricity generation. Design and optimization may be performed using comprehensive system simulation tools, but before investing in the effort to build a complete virtual model framework, much insight can be gathered beforehand by gener...
متن کاملConcentrator Sliver® Cells for CHAPS Concentrator Systems
The Centre for Sustainable Energy Systems (CSES) at The Australian National University, with Origin Energy, has developed a novel cell fabrication process for single crystal silicon PV. The Sliver® cell fabrication process produces narrow and long cells. With some modifications to the current fabrication process it is possible to produce Sliver® cells suitable for concentrator systems with low ...
متن کاملHigh performance Fresnel-based photovoltaic concentrator.
In order to achieve competitive system costs in mass-production, it is essential that CPV concentrators incorporate sufficient manufacturing tolerances. This paper presents an advanced concentrator optic comprising a Fresnel lens and a refractive secondary element, both with broken rotational symmetry, an optic producing both the desired light concentration with high tolerance (high acceptance ...
