The performances of a photovoltaic system based on dye-sensitized solar cells associated with a solar concentrator are investigated. An extensive indoor characterization is performed using both different wavelength bandwidths and concentration ratio. Starting from the acquired data, the system coupled with a solar tracking is also tested in outdoor condition. The obtained results show that it is possible to use this class of solar cells in solar concentrator systems, leading to a new class of devices with a high efficiency and a low cost.

Abstract
The performances of a photovoltaic system based on dye-sensitized solar cells associated with a solar concentrator are investigated. An extensive indoor characterization is performed using both different wavelength bandwidths and concentration ratio. Starting from the acquired data, the system coupled with a solar tracking is also tested in outdoor condition. The obtained results show that it is possible to use this class of solar cells in solar concentrator systems, leading to a new class of devices with a high efficiency and a low cost.
