This document discusses a system designed to increase the efficiency of concentrated solar power generation. The system uses a parabolic trough solar concentrator and heat exchanger to capture waste heat from a solar panel. By focusing sunlight and transferring heat to a working fluid, the system aims to utilize more of the solar energy than traditional photovoltaic panels alone. An experiment will track system temperatures and solar input to calculate the overall efficiency gained from combining thermal and electrical energy collection. The results could demonstrate a six-fold increase in energy captured through cogeneration compared to photovoltaics alone.
