Trough Monocrystalline Solar Modules known as parabolic trough mirrors the whole solar thermal power generation system, is the number of parabolic trough concentrating solar collector through the series-parallel arrangement, will focus sunlight on a receiver tube to heat the working fluid, resulting in high-temperature steam turbine generator sets to promote power generation.
crystalline solar panels and solar thermal power generation technologies, and therefore have different application conditions.
First, technical practicability, the development of photovoltaic technology is more mature, technical practicability, but the core technology still lies in the United States, Japan and a few other developed countries. In comparison, solar thermal technology threshold is lower, compared with other countries, China in this area is much smaller gap, through a series of 863 scientific research projects and joint efforts of industry alliances, we have made much progress. For China, the solar thermal power generation in heat storage, cooling, etc. There are many technical problems to overcome.
Secondly, the production of photovoltaic cells (mainly purified silicon) is a high pollution and high energy consumption, it seems clean, the actual impact on the environment greater. The present case, China’s solar cell production, 80% of the material needs to be imported from abroad, while 90% of the products are sold abroad. Abroad on the production of solar cells in China, more than just value the low cost of labor here. Government of the environmental destruction of the tax policy of the pine and punishment of light, making them more willing to regard China as a solar cell production base. In contrast, solar thermal power plant construction and maintenance of the environmental damage is much smaller.
From the layout point of view, Anti-reflection Coating Glass more flexible layout, you can build large-scale photovoltaic power plants, photovoltaic cells can also be installed on the roof, and even mobile devices, and so on. With the development of future smart grid, home solar power generation can be freely combined network, so that photovoltaic power generation will have a better development. The apparent scale solar thermal power generation, power plants larger, the lower the unit cost of electricity. Therefore only suitable for large-scale solar thermal power plants, the land area, capital requirements of a higher scale.
