There is not a standard configuration of Concentrating Photovoltaic (CPV) systems on the
market because it must be defined according the user characteristics. Hence, it is important …

The performance of Concentrating Photovoltaic and Thermal (CPV/T) systems is also linked
to climatic conditions. In this paper, the main purpose is to determine the energy and …

This work deals with real conditions testing of two Fresnel lens-based optical concentrators
for concentrator photovoltaic systems (CPV). Particular attention is paid to validate the …

This paper presents theoretical and experimental optical evaluation and comparison of
symmetric Compound Parabolic Concentrator (CPC) and V‐trough collector. For direct …

The costs of concentrating photovoltaic (CPV) and concentrating photovoltaic and thermal
(CPV/T) systems are highly reduced in the last years because of their increasing diffusion …

Multi-junction solar cell is designed to have considerable effect towards the solar spectrum
distribution so that the maximum solar radiation could be absorbed hence, enhancing the …

High concentrating photovoltaic (HCPV) is a promising technique for the practical
commercial utilization of solar energy. However, the performance of a HCPV system is …

Abstract Hybrid Concentrated Photovoltaics (HCPVs) are systems in which additional low-
cost silicone solar cells are added to take advantage of the power generated by the diffuse …

Saudi Arabia receives an average insolation of 6 kWh/m2/day, making it one of the most
likely candidates for a country to be using solar energy for meeting its energy needs in the …

The main aim of this paper is to analyze the performances of a linear focus concentrating
photovoltaic and thermal (CPV/T) system used for a residential user. In particular, a …
