The system was independently developed by Beijing Wavespectrum Science and Technology Co. Ltd. 
The utilization rate of solar energy is more than 95 percent and total efficiency of the system is more than 50 percent.
The system guarantees zero pollution, zero emission and zero energy consumption, and has thus achieved energy saving and environmental protection.
