    Principle of Fresnel collector
    Linear Fresnel reflectors use long, thin segments of mirrors to focus sunlight onto a fixed
    absorber located at a common focal point of the reflectors. These mirrors are capable of
    concentrating the sun’s energy to approximately 30 times its normal intensity. This
    concentrated energy is transferred through the absorber to heat up fluids or evaporate
    water for direct steam production.

    History: Augustin-Jean Fresnel (1788 –1827), was a French engineer and who
    studied the behaviour of light both theoretically and experimentally. He is best known as
    the inventor of the fresnel lens.

    Hybrid concept - different applications:
    o With the innovative modular mirror modules the proven technology of large CSP power
    plants is now also available for the industry using a market concept similar to the one for
    conventional flat plate collectors.
    o Closing a market gap in the solar business with many applications
    o The system is used beside an existing steam boiler => fossil fuel cost reduction by
    substitution
    o During sunny periods the solar system delivers steam, the existing boiler load can be
    reduced
    o In cases of an existing lack of capacity, the solar steam system can help to increase
    production

    Technology
    o Direct conversion of solar power into steam
    o CSH – Concentrated Solar Heat
    o Linear Fresnel system
    o Flat narrow mirror strips focus the sunlight onto a receiver pipe
    o The mirror strips are turned by drive and control with high precision according to the
    tracking of the sun during the day
    o Water is heated up and evaporated in the receiver
    o Mirror module: focused, swivel-mounted mirror strips with drive and control preassembled
    and tested on a panel ready for installation
