Definition system using photovoltaic technology that generates electricity by focusing the sun's power on small, high-efficiency, multi-junction solar cells using lenses and curved mirrors Reference Council-EN, based on:1. Suncore > CHP Technology & Products > CPV – Concentrator Photovoltaics http://suncoreus.com/cpv-technologies/cpv/ [3.3.2016]2. Wikipedia, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concentrator_photovoltaics [3.3.2016]
Comment The technology concentrates sunlight onto a small area, meaning it requires less photovoltaic material and less space than non-concentrating PV, and it does not require silicon materials because its optical systems use standard materials.Reference: Green Rhino Energy > Solar Power > Technologies http://www.greenrhinoenergy.com/solar/technologies/pv_concentration.php [8.3.2016]
