Australia’s great success in producing solar energy with the help of mirrors

Australia was able to successfully produce solar energy with the help of many mirrors. This event is important because it is a good opportunity to save more renewable energy.

According to Tekna technology and technology news service, the use of solar collectors with the help of centralized thermal technology will provide the possibility of using solar energy to produce heat. In this difficult process, usually large mirrors or lenses will focus sunlight into a narrow area called a receiver. In fact, mirrors are the same solar collectors that are presented with a distinctive design and focusing technique in examples such as solar energy towers, parabolic bowls, or dish systems.

At the focal point of collectors is receiver technology that can absorb concentrated sunlight and convert it into heat. In this liquid receiver, there are heat transfer fluids such as molten salt or oil with very high temperatures. Of course, this technology also has disadvantages. Because it will need good weather and constant sunshine for its best performance. Also, the equipment of this technology is very expensive. The National Science Agency of Australia has been able to create this technology during a key development and it can be said that it will be possible to use it for this country or even the whole world.

Australian researchers achieved great success in these receivers for the first time by reaching a turning point with a temperature of 803 degrees Celsius. In this technology, ceramic particles are used, which can withstand temperatures of more than 1000 degrees Celsius with the aim of optimizing the concentrated solar thermal technology.
