The influence in the power and the efficiency of irradiation levels, air temperature, and the influence of air mass were under study for 6 months. Pmax shows a linear be- havior with direct normal irradiance, and efficiency was constant to a first approximation for a wide range of irradiance levels. The effect of air temperature was negligible for the temperatures under study. At the same time, efficiency shows a maximum around AM1.5 and decreases aside this point.engCC0 1.0 Universalhttp://creativecommons.org/publicdomain/zero/1.0/Concentrator photovoltaicOutdoor measuresCharacterizationinfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
