Abstract
Solar energy is one of the most popular renewable energies in the world as solar energy can be easily accessed throughout most places of the world. However, converting solar energy into other sources of energy is not very cheap and numerous efficiency improvements methods are under investigation by researchers around the world. The current study proposes a low concentration photovoltaic system (LCPVS) with 4 mirrors and cooling. The aim of this project was to examine how using mirrors to concentrate solar radiation affects the amount of power generated by solar panels. The mirrors (ranging from 1 to 4) radiated the sun reflection onto the panel with a cooling system. The results obtained from the proposed project were compared to the results collected from the normal panel without concentration to measure the differences which revealed that the proposed system output power was almost three times more than conventional photovoltaic (PV) panel without concentration.
