This document explains the principle of Concentrator Photovoltaic (CPV) based on Soitecs Concentrix technology and identifies CPV opportunities in China.Keywords:CPV,Soitec,China 1 Introduction CPV is the technology with the highest efficiencies in the photovoltaic industry,offering competitive advantages in regions with high Direct Normal Irradiation (DNI),as can be found in China.2 CPV Potential in China 2.1 The principle of CPV based on Soitecs Concentrix technology Soitecs Concentrix technology uses Fresnel lenses to concentrate sunlight 500 times and focus it onto small,highly efficient multi-junction solar cells.Today Soitec CPV Modules achieve efficiencies of 30%.2.2 CPV installations in China and all over the world Starting with the first demonstration systems installed in 2005,Soitecs Concentrix technology now has a solid track record of CPV installation in 14 countries all over the world.The presentation will give measurement results of field installations of CPV power plants in different environments.In November 2011,Soitec announced its first order for solar-energy systems from the Peoples Republic of China.Soitecs CPV systems were shipped to Focusic (China) New Energy Holding Co.,Ltd.,a Chinese developer of renewable-energy power plants.This order is part of a partnership agreement between the two companies and is used for a 3 megawatt (MW)CPV power plant in Hami,a city on the edge of the Gobi desert in the Xinjiang Autonomous Region.2.3 Opportunities for CPV installations in China The presentation will give an overview of the most promising locations for CPV installations and the development of the CPV market with focus on China.
