Abstract: HERNANDEZ, GLENN IL and MENDOZA, IAN ROSE AARON F.,Design and Development of Multiple Concentrators for Photovoltaic Power Generation. Undergraduate Design Project. Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering. Cavite State University, Indang, Cavite. April, 2014. Adviser: Engr. Leonardo A. Estero. The design and development of multiple concentrators for photovoltaic power generation was conducted from the October 2012 until October 2013. The study was conducted to design, develop and construct multiple concentrators for photovoltaic power generation to improve the power accumulated from a photovoltaic panel. The system was composed of three main concentrators and a solar panel. The concentrators were: the mirror array, Fresnel lens and compound parabolic concentrator. The solar panel was fixed with the compound parabolic concentrator. A 9V battery was used as the power source for the gizduino microcontroller and for the stepper motor installed in the mirror array. The concentrators were place at the rooftop of Engineering Science Building from August 12 to 15 and from September 2 to 5, 2013 to test the accuracy and efficiency of the system at different weather conditions. The data recording was done from 7 am to 5 pm at an interval of 30 minutes. The design was presented to the thesis adviser, technical critic and research panel during the preliminary evaluation conducted at College of Engineering and Information Technology Building on October , 2013. The system was evaluated by comparing the data recorded from the solar panel with multiple concentrators and the solar panel directly exposed to sun light. The efficiency of the project was evaluated by computing the real time average power and compared it to the maximum theoretical power.
