TITAN TRACKER a Pioneer in the Stirling Dish Development
TITAN TRACKER has developed a Stirling dish concentrator that combines the highest performance with a significant cost reduction in the utility-scale concentrating solar installations.
SAN FRANCISCO, July 8 -- TITAN TRACKER, a Spanish based technology firm specialized in manufacturing and commercialization of dual-axis solar trackers has just developed, under its industrial property rights, a Stirling dish concentrator: the model 125-129 STIRLING, specifically designed for utility-scale Concentrating Solar Power (CSP)
Each structure includes two parabolic dishes with a high reflectance-mirrors surface of 65,4 m squared. This new development shares the advantages of the concept patented by TITAN TRACKER which were successfully applied for high concentrating: extreme accuracy, better than 0.01 degrees, and high reliability thanks to its geometry and continuous tracking, avoiding high stress produced by thousands of starts and stops needed in mounted-pole trackers.
The cost efficiency of this dish concentrator makes possible the construction of utility-scale solar plants at a reasonable cost. TITAN TRACKER offers licensing agreements for a local manufacturing to developers or EPC firms interested in this technology.
This new technology will be launched for the first time at Intersolar North America, July 14 - 16, 2009, Moscone West, San Francisco.
