Solar technology has great potential in terms of supplying the world’s energy demands. The effective way of using sunlight with solar energy concentration technology and solar tracking system is discussed in this paper. The present status of application and the ongoing research and development work suggest that parabolic dish solar concentrators coupled with solar trackers will bring a breakthrough of commercial solar energy concentration application technology in the coming years. The paper is focused on increasing the efficiency of parabolic dish concentrator using solar tracker. This paper will provide an up-to-date review of solar parabolic dish concentrators and their benefits to make solar technology affordable.
