ABSTRACT:
A solar energy concentrator is provided which includes a flexible reflective surface to focus solar flux on absorber tubes. The surface is mounted above a plurality of partially evacuated chambers. As the relative position between the sun and the concentrator change, the position of the absorber tubes and curvature of the reflective surface are changed to maintain an optimum reflective surface curvature for solar energy concentration.
