  2. Concentrated solar power - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concentrated_solar_power

    The efficiency of a concentrating solar power system depends on the technology used to convert the solar power to electrical energy, the operating temperature of the receiver and the heat rejection, thermal losses in the system, and the presence or absence of other system losses; in addition to the conversion efficiency, the optical system ...

  3. Concentrator photovoltaics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concentrator_photovoltaics

    Concentrator photovoltaics and thermal (CPVT), also sometimes called combined heat and power solar (CHAPS) or hybrid thermal CPV, is a cogeneration or micro cogeneration technology used in the field of concentrator photovoltaics that produces usable heat and electricity within the same system.

  4. Applications of photovoltaics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Applications_of_photovoltaics

    Concentrated solar power (CSP) systems generate solar power by using a combination of mirrors or lenses to concentrate a large area of sunlight onto a receiver. Electricity is generated when the concentrated light is converted to heat (solar thermal energy), which drives a heat engine (usually a steam turbine) connected to an electrical power ...

  5. Concentrated photovoltaic thermal system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concentrated_photovoltaic...

    In Concentrating Photovoltaic (CPV) systems differs from PV system is the solar radiation is concentrated on the PV cells to generate additional electricity than a normal flat panel. [7] The disadvantages of CPV system is as the intensity of the radiation increases, so does the temperature and hence decreases the electrical efficiency of the ...

  6. Solar power - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_power

    Concentrated solar power systems use lenses or mirrors and solar tracking systems to focus a large area of sunlight to a hot spot, often to drive a steam turbine. Photovoltaics (PV) were initially solely used as a source of electricity for small and medium-sized applications, from the calculator powered by a single solar cell to remote homes ...

  7. Particle receiver - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Particle_receiver

    A particle receiver is an object placed on the top of a solar tower on which surface solar energy is concentrated by means of a solar field composed of large number of mirrors, called heliostats. The goal is to transform solar energy into thermal energy that can be used in a heat process, thermochemical process, or in a heat engine to produce ...
