Technology Description

The technology is a device that converts solar energy into PV DC power using Ga.As. Mj. Ml. concentrator solar cell & into thermal energy in concentrated form & transport to usage point. It is concentrated solar power collector and converting device, converts into DC power and traps thermal energy in a receiver and transports to a convenient user point.

Device collects solar energy converges to a small area, converts into usable form of energy PV DC & thermal energy using Ga.As.Mj.Ml. concentrated solar cell housed in a designed receiver.

Concentrator solar cell is Ga. As. multi layer multi junction cell is used can handle 1500 sun intensity and covert entire solar spectrum into DC power at 39 % efficiency & balance into into thermal energy. it require a receiver fraction of area of aperture opening proportion to sun intensity. convergent solar ray require sun tracker that collects maximum energy at uniform rate to collect 30 % more energy.

Applications

PV power for utility power grid feed. Modular dishes laid in rows and gangs generate Mw power. The hybrid module can be roof mounted for 1 Kwe or laid in rows and gangs to produce Mwe for grid feed.

Benefits

The solar cell used is of 39 % efficient compared to 15 % available cell. Both PV and thermal energy are collected & used.

One sun passive diffuse rays with si.solar pv cell convert 15 % into dc & dissipate heat into atmosphere. This innovative hybrid receiver collect both pv dc & thermal energy totally.
