Abstract: A means for concentrating direct solar radiation into controllable and directable beams that can optically transport the beam radiation to a central targeting area such as a steam turbine reactor 16 to generate electricity 21; and a method for concentrating solar radiation whereby the radiation is converted from a widely dispersed wave-front to concentrated and directable collimated light beams that provide the energy for steam turbine reactor 16 to generate electricity 21; and an apparatus comprising a fresnel lens 1 that focuses light in concave lenses 3 which convert the converging light into a beam of light, where the beam is targeted with a mirror 4; a plurality of said lens 1/lens 3/mirror 4 collectors which track the direct solar radiation by a solar tracker 12, the said plurality of lens 1/lens 3/mirror 4 collectors are targeted to a cone shaped mirror 7, where the cone shaped mirror directs the light into a targeting system 15 where multiple collectors concentrate their beams onto a steam turbine rea
