| | Title: | Solar Collector and Concentrator - http://www.easolar.com | | Pagerank: | 2 | | Description: | New Solar Concentrator for thermal or PV applications. The basic concept for the design is that a metal foil placed in uniform tension provides an excellent substrate for an optically reflective surface. The usual hardware of conventional technologies like parabolic troughs -backing structures for supporting and driving rigid mirrors- is totally removed with substantial weight and cost reduction, and such saving in the concentrator hardware is expected to result in comparable energy-cost saving. | | Category: | Blogs: Technology | | Link Owner: | Eduardo A.
