Table 1
The main losses of this concentrator system, considering the normal incidence and divergence angle of solar.
| The reason of losses | Losses | Transmission |
| Fresnel losses on the front surface of primary Fresnel lens | | 96.06% | Fresnel losses on the sawteeth surface of primary Fresnel lens | | 90.82% | Losses due to the drag angle of primary Fresnel lens' sawteeth | | 86.32% | Fresnel losses on the surface of secondary lens | | 82.77% |
| Total power efficiency on the surface of solar cell: 82.77% |
