3D solar cells
3D solar cells are mainly parabolic mirrors, which concentrate the sun’s power into one spot. A parabolic mirror (as you may have read) is a curved mirror, or a frame with mirror bits on it. The mirror is usually a third or a half of a circle, so it gives more heat than a flat solar cell. these cells in an array are more useful for heating water, but the also can produce more than a solar panel. It has to be on the ground though.
