Before 4/29/11:
Solar Fire is a leading open source solar concentrator project. OSE is currently interested in a linear fresnel-type solar concentrator. OSE should definitely build on the Solar Fire experience, but route to adaptation to linear systems is not clear.
Update 4/29/11:
Solar Fire has developed the world's first, replicable, working, large-scale, open source solar dish system. Check out the P32, a 20kW peak thermal capture system. It is currently being scaled for larger applications. It is scalable in the sense of multiple connected receivers from multiple arrays - because the cost of the recever is on the order of $100.
