S.Sureshkumar, V.Gowri, Dr.N.L.Venkataraman
Pages: 94-103
Abstract
Concentrated Photovoltaic (CPV) and Solar Heating systems are innovative technologies that harness solar energy for electricity generation and thermal heating, respectively. CPV systems utilize mirrors or lenses to concentrate sunlight onto small, high-efficiency solar cells, achieving higher energy conversion efficiencies compared to traditional photovoltaic technologies. These systems are particularly suitable for utility-scale solar power plants and sun-rich regions
