Abstract
A solar light-heat hybrid power generation system having an improved efficiency is provided. A solar light-heat hybrid power generation system (100) that performs power generation by use of sunlight (52) and solar heat (52) includes a light collecting mirror (10) having an infrared reflective film (20) formed on a surface (10a) thereof; a heat collecting section (60) that collects infrared rays (55) reflected by the infrared reflective film (20) on the surface (10a) of the light collecting mirror (10); a power generator (84) including a turbine (82) rotatable by steam generated by heat collected to the heat collecting section (60); and a solar cell panel (30) including a solar cell (32) located inside the light collecting mirror (10).
Claims11
A solar light-heat hybrid power generation system that performs power generation by use of sunlight and solar heat, the solar light-heat hybrid power generation system comprising:
- a light collecting mirror having an infrared reflective film formed on a surface thereof;
- a heat collecting section that collects infrared rays reflected by the infrared reflective film on the surface of the light collecting mirror;
- a power generator including a turbine rotatable by steam generated by heat collected to the heat collecting section;
- and
- a solar cell panel including a solar cell located inside the light collecting mirror.
A light collecting mirror usable in a solar light-heat hybrid power generation system, wherein:
- the light reflective mirror has an infrared reflective film formed on a surface thereof;
- the light reflective mirror accommodates a solar cell therein;
- and
- the infrared reflective film transmits at least a part of light in a range from visible light to ultraviolet light toward the solar cell.
