This paper examines the environmental impact of solar energy. It presents an analysis of the types of devices and operating principles of solar heat generators, as well as their uses. Much attention is paid to the selection of material for the working element (collector) of solar rays, which has high heat transfer and low cost, as well as to the methods of forming and producing the solar concentrator (SC) receiver itse Based on the research conducted, recommendations are provided for the practical use of solar energy.

Keywords: solar energy, concentrator, collector, thermal conductivity, zinc alloy, ecology.
