Multi sensor solar collection system

A method for controlling a multi sensor solar collection system, the method comprising:

• providing a plurality of different sets of solar cells that are mounted on a planar mounting;
• focusing, with at least one focusing element, a light beam on a first set of the solar cells according to a current light condition;
• and
• gimballing the planar mounting to focus, with the at least one focusing element, the light beam on a second set of the solar cells according to a change in the current light condition,
• wherein when the light beam is focused on the first set of the solar cells, the light beam is not focused on the second set of the solar cells,
• wherein when the light beam is focused on the second set of the solar cells, the light beam is not focused on the first set of the solar cells,
• wherein the first set of the solar cells and the second set of the solar cells are configured into a two-dimensional array.
