Why can not we use giant magnifying glass to enlarge the sun's rays and heat water to produce electricity?
When I was a child uses a magnifying glass to burn paper. Instead of using photovoltaic solar energy, the lens would not allow much water to boil and turn the turbines it our coal plants powered to do today?
For plants that power, we have clear sky no clouds and no wind speed. Than 24 hours a day. Scattered clouds will give the maximum performance and zero wind speed not to damage the glass surface to the sun's rays are concentrated in one place .. So it's not commercially viable, at least on earth.
