The future looking bright

The sun has always been a source of power on our planet, but new technology is allowing companies like Solarton to harness the sun’s power more efficiently and effectively. Solartron’s SolarBeam Concentrator is equivalent to 15 conventional solar panels, and it is built to withstand extreme weather conditions including winds of up to 140 km/h.


The system can track the sun, uses inexpensive piping systems, and can be roof-mounted or post-mounted on the ground. The SolarBeam Concentrator can be used as a source of heat, air conditioning and electricity production.
