Solar reflectors

Solar reflectors are devices that direct sunlight toward a specific target, such as a solar collector or panel, to maximize energy absorption. They are typically made of reflective materials like aluminum or mirrored surfaces that bounce sunlight efficiently. By concentrating sunlight, reflectors increase the amount of solar energy captured, improving the efficiency of solar power systems. They are used in various solar technologies, including concentrating solar power (CSP) plants and solar thermal collectors, helping to generate more renewable energy with fewer panels or collectors.
