a technological understanding which allows public decisions with high confidence. The strategy for accomplishing this objective and for promoting the commercialization of line-focus concentrators involves improving the performance and the reliability of hardware at the component, sub-system, and systems levels; reducing the cost associated with installation of the systems; and allowing opportunities for increasing the production levels so that mass production technology can become a reality. A brief synopsis of activities and accomplishments relative to these strategies in fiscal 1980 is presented. Show Less
