Can ReflecTech® Mirror Film be used to generate heat or electricity directly?
ReflecTech® Mirror Film is nothing more (or less) than a mirror. It is used for redirecting (concentrating) sunlight to where you want it, whether that be a receiver filled with heat transfer fluid, as in Concentrating Solar Power (CSP); or a photovoltaic cell, as in Concentrating Photovoltaic (CPV). It cannot be used as a standalone system but rather focuses the sun’s energy to increase energy collection by another system.
ReflecTech® Mirror Film serves the same purpose as glass mirrors but at a greatly reduced cost.It is used for redirecting (concentrating) sunlight to where you want it, whether that be a receiver filled with heat transfer fluid, as in Concentrating Solar Power (CSP); or a photovoltaic cell, as in Concentrating Photovoltaic (CPV).
