Solar panels may be cheap to produce, but they are terrible for the environment because of the complex manufacturing process. Parabolic reflectors can be melted down and reformed without huge additional environmental costs. If you're interested in the environment, this is the real benefit. Cutting-edge solar panels have about 23% theoretical efficiency. Stirling dish systems have about a 30% theoretical efficiency and about a 25% real-world efficiency. |
