The solar cells had a size of 7x7 mm operating with an efficiency of 35% at 820×. For these particular solar cells the warranty time for three locations, Golden (CO-USA), Madrid (Spain), and Tucson AZUSA), exhibits a 4 to 1 ratio, which affects the LCOE (Levelized Cost of Electricity) in an important way. In this work, we go a step further evaluating the influence of concentration and solar cell size on the warranty for a specific thermal design. date: 2018-09-13 date_type: published publisher: AIP Conference Proceedings official_url: https://www.cpv-14.org/home.html id_number: 10.1063/1.5053526 full_text_status: public pres_type: paper volume: 2012 event_title: 14th International Conference on Concentrator Photovoltaic Systems event_location: Puertollano, España event_dates: 16/04/2018 - 18/04/2018 event_type: conference institution: ETSIS_Telecomunicacion department: Electronica3 refereed: TRUE isbn: 978-0-7354-1728-1 book_title: 14TH International Conference on Concentrator Photovoltaic Systems (CPV-14) rights: by-nc-nd comprojects_type: CM comprojects_type: MINECO comprojects_type: UPM comprojects_code: S2013/MAE-2780 comprojects_code: TEC2014-54260-C3-1-P comprojects_code: RP150910B12 comprojects_acronym: MADRID-PV comprojects_leader: Martí Vega, Antonio comprojects_leader: Universidad Politécnica de Madrid comprojects_title: Materiales, dispositivos y tecnología para el desarrollo de la industria fotovoltaica comprojects_title: Evaluación de arquitecturas de nueva generación en células solares multiunión para lograr eficiencias del 50% citation: Nuñez Mendoza, Neftali and Vazquez Lopez, Manuel and Tamayo Arriola, Julen and Orlando, Vincenzo and Alburquerque del Hoyo, Olga and Fernández Fernández, Antonio and Algora del Valle, Carlos (2018).
