Abstract

There is a crucial need for sustainable progress in the field of energy saving in rational time. This paper shows the effect of solar energy in photovoltaic with a Fresnel convex Lens. With the use of this Lens it has been studied that there is unbelievable improvement in various parameters of photovoltaic nature. With the use of the Fresnel lens the concentration of the system has been enhanced in commendable time. In order to diminish the losses from reflection, proper photon management has been implemented. This paper describes an approach in scheming of concentrator module. Small size sub-module ,each of which 2×2 cm2 aperture and 15cm focusing distance are united in a fully hermetic module which is resistance to the environmental effects. Fresnel’s Lens has a composite construction and comprise of a silicate glass and a thin refractive profile made of transparent silicon. These advances concern the two main mechanisms of the system, the optics and the cell, as well as their mixing inside a complete module. The projected system can help in reducing the dependency by fossils fuel in the environment.
