A flat plate solar collector comprising a planar glazing and a rear housing formed into a number of semi-circular cells to receive fin-tube absorbers with minimal direct contact, the glazing being a low iron glass with an anti-reflective exterior coating and a low emissivity interior coating, the glazing being directly supported by the rear housing cells, the interior wall of the rear housing and the lower side of the fin-tube absorber having low emissivity surfaces. At least one radiation shield member having low emissivity upper and lower surfaces is positioned between the fin-tube absorber and the rear housing. The collector is evacuated by atmosphere control means also capable of reintroducing atmosphere into the collector to control internal temperature.
