Tucson Embedded Systems (TES) supported a large industrial prime in their creation of a High Concentration Photovoltaic (HCPV) power conversion system designed to capture electricity from 500 suns of power. In order to achieve high efficiency power conversion at significant power output, solar energy is concentrated into a closed cavity (PVCC) containing PV cells and photon recycling design features. The initial system prototype, pictured here, demonstrates a system which will ultimately be scaled to a  multi-MegaWatt system for conventional utility-generated  electricity on a wholesale basis. TES constructed the subsystem, conducted systems integration, and  safety critical testing. TES' HCPV Project Assembly, Integration and Test tasks served as the principal method for gathering engineering data to evaluate the overall viability of this concept for commercial use.
