The good people of GoSol have spent years trying to eradicate energy poverty by bringing solar energy to the masses. To that end, they have just released a free solar concentrator (Sol1) construction ...
These findings were confirmed by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) based on measurements taken in a parched stretch of Colorado where the Optical Efficiency Test Loop is found. The ...
The improved design of the FOCUS centers on design-for-manufacturing improvements and encompasses all aspects of the FOCUS parabolic dish concentrator with particular emphasis on the parabolic mirror, ...
SolFocus, a solar company with roots at Xerox's Palo Alto Research Park, said that it closed $25 million in financing that it will use to increase production of its solar concentrator technology.

A global research team has developed a parabolic trough linear concentrating photovoltaic-thermal system to produce heat and electricity, for both residential and large-scale applications. The PV unit ...
Most concentrators tend to be complex systems that use special lenses, curved mirrors, and other optical components with a “nonzero” focal length. This means that there must be enough distance–an air ...
Dr. Wilfred Fritz is the team leader of the group that devised the automated solar cooker. Subsequently CPUT made funding available to develop the product for commercialisation. The next step is ...
In the industrial town of Morbi in Gujarat, the air usually hums with the roar of gas-fired kilns producing millions of square metres of ceramic tiles. Today, however, nearly a quarter of the town’s ...
