losses in the PV cells due to high temperatures. The Pyron System, on the other hand, is passively water-cooled – water is far more efficient as a heat- transfer medium than ambient air, and the power generated will exceed the power of otherwise equivalent air-cooled concentrating PV systems thanks to lower cell operating temperatures. Figure 9 shows the Pyron System floating on water that functions as passive cooling element.


Even more remarkable is the output-to-land ratio, or so-called “footprint” of this new technology. Pyron Solar provides the smallest footprint in the industry, meaning that it requires the smallest area of land per installed MWpeak; only 3.1 acres are needed to install one MW.


Huge market potential for CPV According to the Concentrated Photovoltaics Industry Report 2010, CPV installations in the USA will grow from 1.5 MW to 75 MW in the next five years. If installation patterns in the PV industry are anything to go by, this will represent just 8% of


total CPV installations by 2015. This is what clean energy on a large scale is looking for: a higher power density and more economical use of land, resulting in a potentially lower Levelized Cost of Energy. As the most efficient system in the already- efficient CPV market, Pyron Solar will be on the cutting edge of clean energy technology for years to come.
