Eco Factor: Solar concentrator system based on Dionysius' ear. Mostly all solar thermal power plants make use of parabolic mirrors to concentrate sunlight onto a convection fluid, which then heats water and converts it into steam for generating...

Eco Factor: New solar concentrators reduce expenses made on semiconductor material. Skyline Solar claims to have moved a step ahead from other companies in making solar energy cheaper. Its new solar concentrators are said to concentrate sunlight..

Eco Factor: Researchers develop microconcentrators to make solar energy modules cheaper and more efficient. Efficiency and high cost are the two main hurdles in the path of global solar adoption. Developing economies like India and China would...

Eco Factor: The new technology will cost just one-fourth of traditional solar concentrators and would be far greener in both composition and efficiency. Solar concentrators are widely used to generate power from existing solar panels, but...

EcoFactor: Turning old and discarded satellite dishes into solar concentrators that produce clean energy. Solar energy is one clean power source that is gaining popularity at a rapid pace, and people are coming up with innovative ways to harness the.

Solar energy is clean and renewable, still we don't use it. The reason is that the conventional solar panels require expensive photovoltaic material. The more the material is used the expensive the panels get. A company named Solient Energy has...
