Combined Heat & Power (CHP)
solar generator based
on High Concentrated Photovoltaic (HCPV)
How it works
Z10 features one 12m² collector, mounted on a dual axis tracker that concentrates incoming solar power onto a receiver. The receiver consists of a multi junction PV coupled to heat exchanger that converts concentrated solar flux into electrical power (A) and thermal power (B).
(A) DC electrical power from the PV cells is converted to AC power and fed to the grid.
(B) Thermal energy is pumped through a closed loop system to the various users and applications such as:
●Municipalities and district heating
●Hotels, Hospitals and resorts
●Industrial process heat: ideal for textile, food and pharmaceutical industry
●Thermal energy cooling can be converted into cooling or desalination and brackish water purification
