NOVELTY - The apparatus has a paraboloidal dish-shaped mirror (1) concentrating solar radiation at a paraboloidal focus (28). A spherical lens is positioned near the focus of the mirror, and has square photovoltaic cells positioned at a receiving surface placed in an optical path beyond the lens to generate electricity when the cells are illuminated with solar radiation. The mirror is made by a process that comprises creating a reflective surface on a flat sheet of glass to form a portion of a reflector dish that reflects solar energy to the focus to convert solar energy into useable energy.    USE - Apparatus for generating electricity from solar radiation through photovoltaic/thermal process.    ADVANTAGE - The apparatus generates the electricity from the solar radiation at low cost, and facilitates solar conversion at a low total system cost. The apparatus delivers the highly concentrated solar radiation to high efficiency conversion units at the lowest cost per unit power. The reflector is made from float glass at low cost and at quick speed to accommodate full output of an existing float glass factory production line during continuous manufacturing process, thus ensuring high speed and quick production rates. The apparatus establishes the power level for minimum cost per watt, so that highly efficient conversion units are re-optimized for the power level without any loss in efficiency, or increasing conversion cost per unit power. The apparatus achieves a discernable impact upon minimizing climate change caused by greenhouse gasses in our atmosphere, by economically making the reflector to be used in a solar conversion system. The horizontal extension provided in the apparatus minimizes shadowing at low sun elevation by adjacent units, thus maximizing land usage, while minimizing wind loading. The apparatus minimizes parasitic loads from drive motors, and maximizes optical throughput by the conversion units. The apparatus ensures clean separation of the conversion units from multiple large energy collection elements, thus separately optimizing mass production, transport assembly, upgrade and maintenance of reflector dishes, trackers, and the conversion units. The reflector provides better durability characteristics in solar applications exposed to outdoor weather conditions. The apparatus utilizes a space frame to incorporate offsets between horizontal rows of the units to improve mechanical performance.
