Abstract
A technology for the construction of relatively large secondary concentrators was developed, tested and demonstrated on solar power level of more than 500 kWth. The paper describes in a detailed manner the unit, which was built and tested at the Weizmann Institute of Science Solar Tower for use with two solar reformers.
