- 4. the business opportunity
• With a 40% increase in clean energy markets from 2006 to 2007,
industry reports put clean energy and technology squarely into the
mainstream
• The four clean energy sectors-solar photovoltaics, wind, biofuels, and
fuel cells-saw an increase in revenue growth from $55 billion in 2006
to $77.3 billion in 2007. Solar, wind, and biofuels each had more than
$20 billion is revenues.
• Projected revenues from clean energy technologies will grow to
$254.5 billion by 2017
• Solar and wind have sustained a 40% growth since the beginning of
the decade
• Although solar energy is still two to three times more expensive than
traditional energy, as costs come down, solar will increase its market
share
• In 2007, almost 3,000 mega-watts of solar power were installed
worldwide

- 5. solar thermal energy systems
• sunlight is concentrated as heat, unlike photovoltaic
systems that convert sunlight directly to electricity
• the heat may be
– stored (thermal battery)
– used directly
– converted to mechanical energy (heat engine)
– converted to electricity (heat engine + generator)

- 15. Gyrosolé™ system overview - I
1. Concentrating solar heat collection system—an efficient and
inexpensive collector that tracks the sun and concentrates its incident
energy as heat; it employs a proprietary alignment scheme and
receiver design for improved efficiency over existing technology.
2. Thermal energy storage system—an efficient and inexpensive
“thermal battery” that enables, in particular, collection of full
morning’s solar heating for production of electric power in the
afternoon during the period of peak power revenue and maximum
consumption. It also enables the recycling of “waste” heat from the
production of electricity, a unique feature that significantly enhances
system efficiency.

3. Heat engine & generator—an innovative and potentially inexpensive
system for the generation of electric power, even at modest (~1 kW)
power levels, but applicable to much higher power levels as well (~500
kW). This heat engine, or “Harmonic Engine”, is a unique design that
promises significantly better performance-to-cost levels than current
Stirling engine technology.
4. Control system—a digital system that provides control of the various
components for optimal performance. Significantly, it includes a method of
energy arbitrage to deliver electric power to the electric grid primarily
during periods of peak revenue (for maximum economic benefit).
