Static solar concentrators present a solution to the challenge of reducing the cost of Building Integrated Photovoltaic (BIPV) by reducing the area of solar cells. In this study a 3-D ray trace code has been developed using MATLAB in order to determi... Read More about Optical efficiency study of PV crossed compound parabolic concentrator.

Optical characterisation of 3-D static solar concentrator (2012)
Journal Article

The focus of this research is to develop a solar concentrator which is compact, static and, at the same time, able to collect maximum solar energy. A novel geometry of a 3-D static concentrator has been designed and coined the Square Elliptical Hyper... Read More about Optical characterisation of 3-D static solar concentrator.

Performance analysis of a reflective 3D crossed compound parabolic concentrating photovoltaic system for building façade integration (2012)
Journal Article
Mammo, E. D., Sellami, N., & Mallick, T. K. (2013). Performance analysis of a reflective 3D crossed compound parabolic concentrating photovoltaic system for building façade integration. Progress in Photovoltaics, 21(5), 1095-1103. https://doi.org/10.1002/pip.2211

A reflective 3D crossed compound parabolic-based photovoltaic module (3D CCPC PV) was designed and its electrical and optical performance was analyzed for building integrated photovoltaic applications. A maximum power concentration of 3.0× was achiev...
