Canadian eco-conscious designer Aaron Daley has been busy developing new solar technologies for a couple of years now. Just recently, he released a Concentrated Solar Power technology called ICARUS HEAT. The technology is ideal for buildings and businesses that usually consume high volumes of hot water for running their various operations.


As you could see in the above image, the system uses lengthened Fresnel lens or parabolic mirrors that aim at a centrally placed water pipe for heating the liquid in it. A series of such CSP units have been netted to heat high volumes of water. Aaron collaborated with Rackam Design to build the ICARUS HEAT.
