Concentrated Photovoltaic (CPV) is a promising technology for higher efficiency power generation than other photovoltaic power generating technologies. However, the lack of demand and its failure in the commercial field is mainly due to its long-term reliability issues as well as its cost, which is an order of magnitude higher than the other technologies. Therefore, several measures have been taken to minimize the cost, improve the reliability as well as improve the performance of these concentrators. In this approach, Micro photovoltaic concentrators have been introduced as an outstanding alternative to shed light on all these challenges while keeping the same principle as the CPV modules. This paper presents a theoretical analysis of a micro photovoltaic concentrator system with a geometrical concentration ratio of 100x consisting of a Plano-convex lens as a primary optical element, a ball lens as a secondary optical element, and a solar cell. The aim is to present a compact module with high optical efficiency, low thermal stress, and high mechanical tolerance to keep the optimum optical alignment between the submillimeter cell and the small-sized optics. |
