Solartron Energy Systems Inc. has created the SolarBeam Concentrator is the word’s first affordable parabolic solar concentrator for thermal hot water production. One system provides peak 10kw/hour (34000 BTU/hour) of hot water capable to heat a 2400 sq. ft (222 m2) house. The solar collector area of the SolarBeam Concentrator is 121 sq ft (11.3 m2) and concentrates the sun’s heat on a 10″X10″ (25X25 cm) heat exchanger. The SolarBeam has dual-axis sun tracking and is available for commercial, government, and residential applications. Payback is typically 6 years with government incentives. SolarBeam is 262% more efficient than solar flat plate hot water panels and 98% more efficient than evacuated tube panels. The system is also capable of generating 3.5 kW/hour of photovoltaic electricity as well provide air conditioning in conjunction with absorption chillers. SolarTron Energy Systems Inc. is currently looking for global distributors.

energy efficiency?

Question by zac s: energy efficiency?
lets say I burn to candle wicks, one soaked in fuel and one untreated, and one burns faster than the other. Would the faster burning one or the slower burning one be more efficient, and how do you know?

Best answer:

Answer by gae_bulg
You would know by which one gives off more smoke. The one with more smoke is inefficient. Efficient burners would convert the fuel mostly to light and heat energy rather than smoke. I don’t know about the speed of the reaction though…
