• Concentrate light with a reflective material on to a PV cell.
• Reduces cost per watt as reflective material is cheaper than PV.
• Cogeneration of electricity and heat

• Utilises biodegradable waste
• Generates and regulates its own temperature

Waste heat opportunity
• There is a large quantity of waste heat energy
• Most of the waste heat has a low exergy as it is at low temperatures
• Waste heat better used for refrigeration as opposed trying to extract work
• This will improve the overall efficiency of the BioCPV energy system.
