Most concentrating optics do not show good performance at higher incidence angles and have low acceptance angles and, therefore, they require a high-accuracy solar tracking system, which is costly. In this study, by detailed investigation of optics of the proposed П-shaped concentrating optics, it was found that system remained high in terms of optical efficiency and its concentration ratio at certain higher incidence angles. During the work, ray path through the concentrating optics, width of the light spot at different incidence angles were calculated. Optical efficiency, geometrical concentration ratio, concentration ratio at different incidence angles were found by the results of COMSOL Multiphysics calculations. It was found that the system had a high optical efficiency of approximately 95% and its concentration ratio of 3x-5x was at the range of 土0-20 degrees of incidence angle, and it could reduce the work of a solar tracking system. As well, an increase in the optical efficiency could be seen from 0 to 5 degrees of the incidence angle and an increase in the concentration ratio could be seen from 0 to 12 degrees of the incidence angle in terms of the reflective mirrors which helped redirect the rays to the solar cells. Optical systems with such a high incidence angle could reduce the performance of the solar tracker system, and it reduced the overall cost and energy consumption of the LCPV.
