Abstract

Concentrator Photovoltaic (CPV) is showing a growing trend in the energy market as a consequence of the big investment made by the Photovoltaic industry; but this industrial and commercial growth will be successfully possible with the simultaneous creation of standardization norms that certify the reliability and durability of the CPV systems manufactured. Additionally, the revision of the present CPV standard released is a necessary task as some organisms and laboratories are encountering with some technical problems.
