Dish/engine systems use a parabolic dish of mirrors to direct and concentrate sunlight onto a central engine that produces electricity. .
The solar concentrator, or dish, gathers the solar energy coming directly from the sun. The resulting beam of concentrated sunlight is reflected. .
The power conversion unit includes the thermal receiver and the engine/generator. The thermal receiver is the interface between the dish. .
