A parabolic mirror cost more to make, maintain, and support. A parabolic mirror also acts like a huge sail where as this system can be below the edge of the roof making it impervious to wind. Also cleaning a parabolic mirror of this size would be a pain, and this system can set to be flat and cleaned with a mop.

What's the surface temp?
By: boomtao. on 25 Dec 08, 10:47:06
It does indeed look like a complicated way of doing what a parabolic mirror does cheaply and almost automatically (it focusses and centers the sunlight). Though I completely encourage the kind of efforts portrayed in this clip I think a Solar Stirling Engine with parablic mirrors is simpler, cheaper and more effective. However, there seems to be nothing that troubles menkind as much as simplicity.
By: KyeWeedon. on 08 Dec 08, 07:03:22
May be a silly question, but why not just use a parabolic mirror?
By: camilonino84. on 04 Dec 08, 13:58:47
Most of solar cells are developed to use visible sunligth, so if the cover is transparent it will work with this cells. About the breakdown i think you are right, it will have to be glass then... About the acces, if you put this in the top of a house the acces will be tough. But they are designing this thing to be put on top of corporate buldings that are flat and already have acces to air conditioning systems so the only problem will be having someone to clean them
By: GreenArmyGuy. on 03 Dec 08, 19:00:22
Access for maintenance/repairs would be tough. It does not address the critical water issue. And, I'm no expert in this area but don't some, or all, plastics block the wavelengths in sunlight used for energy by solar panels. Not to mention that plastics break down rapidly when exposed to sunlight for long periods of time, which is what these plastics would be used for. I really like the mirrors, but I don't think it can be done sustainably; economically and environmentally.
By: camilonino84. on 03 Dec 08, 05:48:48
What if you put a flat transparent plastic cover over the hole set of mirrors? then you just have to clean one single surface. The dirt problem persist, but will be a lot simpler to solve
By: GreenArmyGuy. on 30 Nov 08, 06:36:35
Do the rains clean your car? I'm guessing that your car is like mine, and rain washes some surface junk like dust away, but it doesn't actually clean the gunk or make the surface shine again. And, before you suggest that frequent sprinkling could keep it from getting dirty, what about water spots... and where does the water come from, it's not cheap. doesn't really come from a tap, and sources are limited. Still no good.
By: portugal82. on 30 Nov 08, 06:15:18
obviously your Solar Panels are water resistant, can't you have a water sprinkler system setup to clean them automatically or maully
By: GreenArmyGuy. on 28 Nov 08, 18:31:35
Actually it's not a really bad Idea. That is until you factor in the cost of cleaning all of those little mirrors. I have solar panels on my roof, and just like your car's windshield, they get dirty all the time. Their efficiency drops greatly when they are dirty. Cleaning them is a bitch, but cleaning all those tiny mirrors would be worse!

Muy bueno !! gracias desde argentina .
By: trxjw. on 24 Oct 08, 20:22:57
It's certainly a simpler solution, however, there are people who will shun that idea simply because it's an eyesore on the horizon. It's an unfortunate reality, but reality none the less. To be truly energy independent, people are going to have to rethink the way we live.
By: caucazoidandroid. on 20 Oct 08, 15:54:42
This seems like overkill to me. There's a lot of components that could malfunction. There's a video on youtube about a "solar tower" that the Germans built in Spain. It uses the flow of hot air to power a turbine and is much simpler.

So when it rains, whos gonna clean it?

"Genereate 1WK per hour" at 5:55 = I think we should understand 1KW-hour, amount of energy produced, as Joule = W . sec, or that doesn't make sense...

i think this is already in use in spain.

By: Guessagainkk. on 20 Sep 08, 21:12:03
The only advantage I could think of with this one instead of using parabolic dish is because of it low profile mirrors that can be mounted nicely on sloppy roof. If thats the case then they have forgotten about mounting the module at the concentration point, which become pointless. The dish idea is a much cheaper and easy to clean solution without any custom gears, mirros and motor, where the dish can be mounted with an existing GPS planet tracker (for astronomy) for maximum concentration.
By: funguy661. on 12 Sep 08, 02:50:55
Why dont you use a reflector dish made out of a mirror and then use a slew motor? Seems like you need a lesson in physics. Round parabolic shape will provide the most concentration of light for a given area. I would love to be hired on and help you out. Since i solve all your issues in this e mail.
By: owie26. on 10 Sep 08, 21:40:17
this is like the same principal as when you heat the ant with your magnifying glass, it focuses the light.

I'm sorry, I'm not a beleiver in the Tesla Conspiracys. Tesla was a great man and demonstrated the brilliance of wireless electricity. A technology which is still in it's beginning. But, i do not believe that you can generate electricity from the atmosphere. I know people keep going on about the oil companies... but, come on. Maybe 10 years ago but if this technology existed, now would be the perfect time for government's to use it. Especially the USA, it's dieing because of high fuel costs.
