Abstract

Commercialization of concentrating solar power technology require the development of advance reflector that have low cost and high reflectivity for extended life times under the serve of outdoor atmospheric environment. In this paper consist of study and analysis market potential for a solar reflective material which has high reflectance and low material cost. The parabolic trough designed with a dimension of (210cm×60cm) and the thickness of 0.05cm of stainless steel (SS 304). We study the different types of coating material and applying method for improves the performance of reflecting surface.
