The troughs are parabolic in shape and the side walls thereof are pivotable about an axis which is substantially parallel to the longitudinal axis of a trough. Heat transfer apparatus is disposed adjacent the exit portions of the troughs, the heat transfer apparatus defining a conduit for heat transfer fluid whereby heat derived from received solar radiation is transferred to the fluid. The fluid may be either in liquid or gaseous form.
