Abstract
A reflection unit 31 to 34 has an outer reflection panel 311 to 314 and an inner reflection panel 321 to 324. The outer reflection panel 311 to 314 is disposed around power generation units 22 to 24. The inner reflection panel 321 to 324 is disposed substantively parallel to the outer reflection panel 311 to 314 between the outer reflection panel 311 to 314 and the power generation units 22 to 24. The reflection units 31 to 34 reflects solar light injected into gaps 361 to 364 between the outer reflection panels 311 to 314 and the inner reflection panels 321 to 324 to transmit the solar light into the power generation units 22 to 24.
Claims4
A solar power generation apparatus comprising:
- at least two power generation units for receiving solar light to generate electric power;
- and
- at least one reflection unit for reflecting solar light to transmit the solar light into the power generation units,
- wherein each of the power generation units includes:
- a first solar power generation panel having a flat plate shape and a receiving face oriented to a first direction for receiving solar light to generate electric power;
- a second solar power generation panel having a flat plate shape, disposed substantively parallel to, and in the first direction with respect to, the first solar power generation panel, and having a receiving face oriented to a second direction opposite the first direction for receiving solar light to generate electric power;
- and
- a power generation reflection unit disposed between the first solar power generation panel and the second solar power generation panel, and for reflecting solar light injected from a side in a direction substantively perpendicular to the first direction and the second direction to irradiate the solar light onto the receiving faces of the first solar power generation panel and the second solar power generation panel,
- wherein the power generation units are arranged to be piled in the first direction and the second direction,
- wherein the reflection unit has:
- an outer reflection panel having a flat plate shape and disposed parallel to the first direction and the second direction around the power generation units;
- and
- an inner reflection panel having a flat plate shape and disposed parallel to the outer reflection panel between the outer reflection panel and the power generation units, and
- wherein the reflection unit reflects solar light injected from a side in the second direction into a gap between the outer reflection panel and the inner reflection panel to transmit the solar light to the power generation reflection unit.
