  • Abstract
    The Institute for Concentration Photovoltaic Systems (ISFOC) has been established in central Spain in order to promote the industrialisation of CPV technology. With this aim, ISFOC is financing the installation of a number of CPV power plants totalling 3MW. After two calls for tenders and evaluation procedures, seven technologies are currently taking part in the project: Isofoton, Solfocus and Concentrix already installing 1.7MW power plants in total; and the reminding 1.3MW, awarded to Emcore, ArimaEco, Sol3G and Concentración Solar La Mancha-Renovalia, which are to be concluded early 2009.
