The compound parabolic concentrators for solar photovoltaic applications: Opportunities and challenges

The amount of electrical energy produced by a given solar photovoltaic module can be increased by using concentrated solar radiation. The task can be accomplished by integrating optical concentrators with flat PV modules. Compound parabolic concentrators (CPCs) have emerged as one of the best option...
