Our first attempt at setting up a Solar Dish collector. We recorded the focal point temperature at 800 degrees F. We're currently designing a thermal collector to install on this dish plus a thermal storage unit in the basement. Our initial use for this dish is home heating, with a future addition to either a steam engine/turbine or a stirling engine to generate electrical energy. We will post updates as we make them. Any suggestions or comments about the setup or the potential upgrades would be welcomed!
