Concentrator Photovoltaics (CPV) is an advanced solar technology that boosts solar energy harvesting by focusing sunlight onto a small area of high-efficiency photovoltaic materials.CPV systems work by using lenses or curved mirrors to concentrate sunlight, increasing the conversion of solar energy into electrical energy. These systems offer higher efficiency
In concentrator photovoltaic technology, the sunlight in the module is focused on a receiver unit by a material-saving and therefore cost-effective stepped Fresnel lens. Here, the light is additionally bundled by an additional so-called secondary lens and then converted into electrical energy in a very small high-tech solar cell (smaller than 1

Research into concentrator photovoltaics has taken place since the mid 1970s, initially spurred on by the energy shock from a mideast oil embargo. Sandia National Laboratories in Albuquerque, New Mexico was the site for most of the early work, with the first modern-like photovoltaic concentrating system produced there late in the decade. Their first system was a linear-trough concentrator system that used a point focus acrylic Fresnel lens focusing on water-cooled silicon
