UPM-IES
Global reference project for commercial deployment of concentration photovoltaics. Providing reliable information on power and
productivity of CPV systems through the installation of pilot plants of various
technologies.
Our aim is to train a group of experts capable of promoting high level industrial
and academic research.

projectsPSE SIGMASOLES (National Singular and Strategic Projects)Financed by Spanish Ministry of Science and Innovation.
It covers most of R&D areas for CPV, establishing a very dinamic consortium:
Cells
Optics
Modules
Trackers
Power plants - BOS
Pilot Plants - Test fields
Characterization
Modeling
Management - Dissemination
projectsMASDAR - ISFOC
Pilot Plant up to 1MW
ISFOC carries out project management, technology selection and evaluation, rating, monitoring and reporting of CPV performance under Gulf area conditions.
Co-financed by Spanish Government.
Project start - March 2010.

proposal of a spanish CPV FITRegulatory framework that must be predictable,
profitable for the investor, assumable by the Administration and the general public, and sustainable.
Power allocation for CPV plants (10MW/year).
