摘要： Equipped with a solar power generation device that includes a light collecting member that collects and irradiates sunlight, a drive device that drives the light collecting member, and a control device that controls the drive device, and that has at least one solar cell panel. A light collecting device that irradiates light to a parked vehicle using a light concentrating member, the control device determining the power generation efficiency of solar power generation by the solar power generation device based on the position of the solar cell panel. The drive device is controlled so that the power generation efficiency is equal to or higher than the initial power generation efficiency that is the power generation efficiency at the initial position of the light collecting member.

摘要： The invention relates to a facet for solar concentrators, suitable for its use as reflective element of a heliostat, the facet comprising a main body defining a front surface and a back surface. Advantageously, the back surface of the main body is attached to at least three substantially linear ribs, which are arranged substantially parallel along said back surface, and wherein at least one of the three ribs is configured with adjustable anchoring means adapted for their connection to the structure of a solar concentrator. Moreover, the anchoring means are adapted such that the distance between at least one of the three ribs and the structure of a solar concentrator can be varied. The invention also relates to a solar concentrator comprising said facet, and to a method of installation thereof.

摘要： A protective transparent enclosure, such as a greenhouse, encloses a concentrated solar power system having line-focus solar energy concentrators. The line-focus solar energy concentrators have a reflective front layer, a core layer, and a rear layer. The core and the rear layers, when bonded with the reflective front layer, enable the line-focus solar energy concentrator, in some embodiments, to retain a particular form without additional strengthening elements. In some embodiments, the core layer and/or the rear layer are formed by removing material from a single piece of material.

摘要： A film mirror having a metal reflective layer formed on a resin substrate may include, closer to a light incident side than the metal reflective layer, an interface reflective layer having at least one set of a high refractive index layer and a low refractive index layer that are adjacent to each other. At least one of the high refractive index layer and the low refractive index layer may include a water soluble polymer and metal oxide particles. A method for manufacturing the film mirror may include forming the interface reflective layer by simultaneous multilayer coating of materials of the high refractive index layer and the low refractive index layer.

摘要： Certain example embodiments relate to techniques for creating flat laminated mirrors, e.g., for use in concentrating solar power (CSP) applications. In certain example embodiments, the first substrate is a low iron glass substrate. A reflective coating is provided between the first and second substrates. The first and second substrates are laminated together via a radiation curable laminating adhesive with the reflective coating between the substrates. In certain example embodiments the radiation curable laminating adhesive is cured via UV radiation in order to form a laminated reflective article.
