2. Solar CatcherTMAdvance Solar Energy Conversion Solar CatcherTM is an advanced solar power conversion system that utilizes high efficiency Brayton cycle turbine with alternator. Energy storage for 24 hrs operation (Vanadium Battery or Molten Salt) with exceptional efficiency and durability (optional added to Dish Brayton). An advanced Power Conversion Unit with no mechanical wear and no ancillary accessories systems. Overall net conversion efficiency > 30 %. No pipe line and insulation required. Minimum land area. Zero-Emission. Long Life maintenance turbine for 40,000 hrs. One moving part (turbine with alternator). Operates at moderate turbine temperatures and low stress levels. 3. Solar Catcher system is a concentrating solar power Dish technology equipped with a Brayton Turbine special designed for medium solar insolation, soft-land, hot and humid country zone such as Asia Zone. Its mission is to build the most affordable, modular and scalable solar solution in the industry for utility scale solar power market. Parabolic Dish systems use mirrors to focus the incident light onto a single central receiver in front of the mirror. They so far have the highest heat-electricity conversion efficiencies among all CSP designs up to 65 %. The size of the concentrator is determined by its engine. A dish/Brayton Turbine systems concentrator with a nominal direct solar insolation from 500-1,000 W/m2 and a 2-100 kWe capacity has a diameter of approximately 3 to 20 meters. It could also run on a single Rankine or Brayton cycle, where water, or other gas is compressed, heated and expanded into a turbine. Parabolic dish could be applied individually in remote locations, or grouped. 4. For small-grid (village power, 2 - 10 KW) or end-of-line utility (1 - 100 MW) applications. The system had no thermal delivery tubes so it is minimum thermal losses. The electricity transmitted to the gird or storage in Vanadium Batteries. Intermittent cloud cover can cause weakening of highly concentrated receiver source flux. Sensible energy storage in single-phase materials was proposed to allow a cylindrical absorber element not only absorb the energy but also store it in its mass, thus reducing the amplitude of cloud cover transients. Although this design only allows short period energy storage. 5. It could equipped with Vanadium Battery or Thermal Storage for longer operation time, 6, 12, 24 hrs. Designed and developed by Solar Space Frame Industrial Co., Ltd. Thailand. Solar Catcher, CSP technology is a 2, 5, 10, 25, or 100 kWe system.The SFI, Solar Catcher, achieved commercial deployment in early 2013. Its clean solar energy. The Solar Catcher technology makes it possible for large power facilities to provide clean, reliable, cost-effective and truly sustainable solar power to communities, while addressing renewable energy portfolio targets, and tackling global climate change by actively reducing our planets carbon emissions. 6.
