Abstract

This paper is intended to give some data of the components of the first stage of the Qatar pilot project. The project consists of: a meterological and solar measurement station. Test benches for thermal collectors (low and high temperature), photovoltaic tests for cells and panels, a flat plate thermal collecting concentrating system, a polar pond energy collection and storage system, a heliostat mounted normal photovoltaic two axes tracking generator, a flat thermo-photovoltaic hybrid concentrating collecting system, a thermal solar distillation desalination unit, and a small experimental farm that makes use of sand, sea-water and solar energy, a system in which the water vapour from the solar heated sea water directly condenses on the plant roots.
