ABSTRACT:
A solar energy converter for producing variable amplitude alternating current waveforms directly from solar energy including a photo-voltaic cell bank array, formed of a plurality of weighted photo-voltaic segments, a multi-sided, high speed, rotating, light concentrating, concave mirror and a servo means for tracking the sun. Rotation of the mirror past the weighted segments of the photo-voltaic bank produces instantaneous outputs which are proportional to the number of cells scanned in each segment. By suitable arrangement of the photo-voltaic segments, a simulated AC waveform is produced.
