Our current research focuses on solar tower systems using molten salt, air, or particles as heat transfer media and molten salt parabolic trough systems. We are working to ensure that concentrating ...

German start-up SunOyster Energy GmbH has developed a concentrating solar technology based on parabolic mirrors that is claimed to achieve a 75% efficiency in converting direct radiation into heat.

It utilized parabolic trough technology that concentrated the light onto a receiver and produced heat that, in turn, could create electricity. This technology was considered a game changer for solar ...

This research is a collaboration with a Calgary-based company to advance concentrating photovoltaic ... parabolic trough collectors (CPCs) and parabolic trough collectors (PTCs), enhancing the ...
