| Abstract | The objective of this paper is to assess and transfer a high efficiency multi-junction photovoltaic technology developed at the National Renewable Energy Lab to a startup venture. The multi-junction cell will be located at the focal point of a parabolic reflector integrated into a small solar tracking system. This technology is a rooftop satellite-dish-sized reflector that will track the sun, focusing many suns of intensity onto a small high efficiency photovoltaic multi junction cell target. Society has benefited greatly from electrification as it moved from cities to rural communities, and finally to the dispersed few at the end of the line. There are still some rural communities in the world where there are no medium to large electrical energy transmission systems. The state of electrical transmission systems in different countries depends heavily on whether the economy is developing or industrialized. The total world electrical energy usage today is 18 TW-hr (1 TW-hr = $10^{12}$ W-hr). Total electrical loads are forecasted to rise to over 30 TW-hr by 2030 but this estimate could be low. Solar resources are great enough, and high-efficiency multi-junction PV concentrating solar power tracking systems could convert enough sunlight into electrical energy to meet forecasted world electrical load growth. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
