Parabolic trough solar collectors are a type of solar thermal collector that can be used to generate electricity. This paper discusses the potential advantages and challenges of using parabolic trough solar collectors. One of the main advantages of parabolic trough solar collectors is their scalability.
First parabolic ultimate trough collectors used in solar energy generating systems–I had an aperture area of 120 m 2 and an aperture width of 2.5 m . Fig. 13. Parabolic trough collector.
In 2010, SBP and Fraunhofer IML started the development of the next generation collector for parabolic trough power plants under the leadership of FLABEG Holding GmbH (FLABEG). The new collector design of the Ultimate Trough was developed with an aperture area of 1689 m 2 and an aperture width of 7.5 m.
M. Bakkas, in Renewable and Sustainable Energy Reviews, 2018 The Parabolic Trough Collector (PTC) which is a sub-technology of the Concentrated Solar Power systems, is the lowest cost large-scale and most proven solar power alternative available today and is also one of the main renewable energy options for electricity production.
Among the concentrating solar collectors, the parabolic trough is the most developed, cheapest, and widely used for large-scale applications in harnessing solar energy. However, it is not yet cheaper than conventional fossil fuels, and improvements and developments in the PTC are a must . 2.2. Parabolic dish Sterling engine

Parabolic troughs are one of the lowest-cost solar-electric power options available today and have significant potential for further cost reduction. Nine parabolic trough plants, totaling over 350 megawatts (MW) of electric generation, have been in daily operation in the California Mojave Desert for up to 18 years.
Concentrated solar power plants make strategic use of these solar collector classification principles. They aim to turn sunlight into electricity as efficiently as possible. The choice of collector in a project depends on the desired results, the project''s size, and the local climate. Fenice Energy is leading by using these technologies for India''s sustainable progress.
