Abstract
A solar panel is constructed from plural parabolic-cylindrical mirrors arranged side by side, and each mirror has three functions. Its concave ground focusses solar energy, its convex rear carries a strip-like solar cell being thereby disposed close to the focal line of the adjacent mirror, while the rest of the rear surface and possibly also the ground surface dissipates thermal energy.
