Concentrated Photovoltaic (CPV) system is one of the efficient and economical photovoltaics (PV) technologies. The fundamental principle of using CPV system is a substitution of expensive cell area with inexpensive optics. Concentrating the solar radiation on small areas enhances the power output. H...
