Photo of a test system consisting of 40 high concentrating photovoltaic (HCPV) modules with about 34% efficiency (Siemens press photo; copyright Siemens AG, Munich/Berlin, Germany). This test system is a joint effort of Semprius (Durham, NC) and Siemens in collaboration with the Spanish Institute of Concentration Photovoltaic Systems (ISFOC) and the University of Madrid. Leading modules’ manufacturers of conventional PV technologies achieved the maximum module efficiency of about 20% with monocrystalline PV modules and about 16% with polycrystalline technology
