The optical collector can reach about 1000 times of optical collection magnification, and has height to width aspect ratio of less than 0.5, optical collecting angle of more than 1 degree and optical efficiency of more than 80 percent. The invention is suitable for occasions and fields of photovoltaic optical collectors with higher optical collection magnification.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a photovoltaic concentrator. Background technique [0002] In a photovoltaic power generation system, the cost of solar cells accounts for a large proportion of the entire system cost. In order to reduce the cost of photovoltaic power generation, the most effective and fast method is to use a concentrator made of plexiglass to gather sunlight to a small solar cell surface. Photovoltaic concentrators currently used in the market can be divided into low-power concentrators (the concentrating factor is less than 100) and high-power concentrators (the concentrating factor is greater than 100) according to the concentrating ratio. The low-power concentrator achieves the purpose of concentrating sunlight through the reflection or refraction of light by optical elements. It can achieve a wide collection angle, but the low-power concentrator still uses a large amount of solar cells per unit area for collecting sunlight. , can not gre...
