Solar tracker — A solar tracker is a device for orienting a solar photovoltaic panel or concentrating solar reflector or lens toward the sun. The sun s position in the sky varies both with the seasons (elevation) and time of day as the sun moves across the sky.… … Wikipedia
Solar thermal energy — Solar thermal system for water heating in Santorini, Greece … Wikipedia
Solar energy — is the light and radiant heat from the Sun that powers Earth s climate and weather and sustains life. Since ancient times it has been harnessed for human use through a range of technologies. Solar radiation along with secondary solar resources… … Wikipedia
Solar power in the United States — is the largest available energy source for the United States, although in 2006 it accounted for less than 0.1% of electricity generation. Renewable resources (solar, wind, geothermal, hydroelectric, biomass, and waste) provided nearly 12 percent… … Wikipedia
Solar power satellite — A solar power satellite, or SPS or Powersat, as originally proposed would be a satellite built in high Earth orbit that uses microwave power transmission to beam solar power to a very large antenna on Earth. Advantages of placing the solar… … Wikipedia
Solar furnace — For the cooking apparatus see Solar cooker. For electricity generation see Solar updraft tower. A solar furnace is a structure used to harness the rays of the sun in order to produce high temperatures, usually for industry. This is achieved using … Wikipedia
Solar power by country — Nellis Solar Power Plant at Nellis Air Force Base in the USA. These panels track the sun in one axis. The development of solar power by country depends on national economic incentives more than insolation.[1] Many industrialized nations are… … Wikipedia
Concentrated solar power — The PS10 Solar Power Plant concentrates sunlight from a field of heliostats onto a central solar power tower. Concentrated solar power (CSP) systems use mirrors or lenses to concentrate a large area of sunlight, or solar thermal energy, onto a… … Wikipedia
Compact linear Fresnel reflector — Fig.1: Example of a Traditional linear Fresnel reflector with one absorber. A compact linear Fresnel reflector (CLFR) – also referred to as a concentrating linear Fresnel reflector is a specific type of linear Fresnel reflector (LFR) technology.… … Wikipedia
Concentrating solar power — (CSP) systems use lenses or mirrors and tracking systems to focus a large area of sunlight into a small beam. The concentrated light is then used as a heat source for a conventional power plant or is concentrated onto photovoltaic surfaces .… … Wikipedia
Deployment of solar power to energy grids — depends largely upon local conditions and requirements. Many industrialized nations are installing significant solar power capacity in their grids as a reliable economic supplement or alternative to other power sources. Long distance transmission … Wikipedia
