Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2005124245A2] The present invention relates to a reflecting solar concentrator for the generation of electrical energy, comprising a generally concave reflector (1), having a plurality of reflecting elements (2) that define a focal area (3) situated before said reflecting elements (2), a photovoltaic receiver (4) having a plurality of photovoltaic cells, which define an active area, which is situated substantially at said focal area (2) and is adapted to receive the sunlight directly from said reflector (1), said photovoltaic receiver (4) being stationary with respect to said reflector (1), said reflecting elements (2) being substantially at the same distance from said focal area(3), characterized in that said reflecting elements (2) have a flat shape.
