Abstract: A solar energy system comprising linearly focusing optical components and at least on receiver. The solar energy system comprises a device for assembling and disassembling the receiver, wherein the receiver (2) is slidably arranged on a longitudinal rail (4), which enables the receiver in its entirety, or in parts to be slid into and moved to a desired position in the solar energy system, or disassembled, respectively.
