===== 1. Concentration Mechanism: - Lens or Mirrors: Use lenses (Fresnel lenses or other types) or mirrors to concentrate sunlight onto a small, high-efficiency solar cell. - Increased Intensity: The concentrated sunlight increases the intensity of the light hitting the solar cells, potentially increasing the electrical output per unit area. =====
# Solar Cell Efficiency: - High-Efficiency Cells: CPV systems typically use multi-junction solar cells that are more efficient at converting concentrated sunlight into electricity compared to standard silicon cells. - Optimized Operation: These cells are designed to operate under higher illumination levels, maximizing their energy conversion efficiency.
# System Components: - Tracking Systems: To maintain optimal focus, CPV systems often require dual-axis tracking to follow the sun's movement throughout the day. - Heat Management: Concentrating sunlight increases the temperature, so effective cooling systems are necessary to prevent damage to the solar cells and maintain efficiency.
