Photovoltaic cells on the edges of glass or polymer slabs doped with fluorescent dyes, act as PV concentrators, with significant efficiencies even under diffuse irradiation. They do not need tracking systems and are potentially cheap: they could represent a competitive solution in the future for residential use.
(Original in Italian: "Celle fv assemblate sui bordi di lastre di vetro o di plastica trasparente colorate con tinte fluorescenti, agiscono da concentratori fv efficienti anche sotto radiazione diffusa. Non necessitano di sistemi di inseguimento e sono potenzialmente molto economici. Potrebbero rappresentare in futuro una soluzione competitiva per le applicazioni nel residenziale").
