An evacuated solar thermal conductive device including a conductive heat receiving element having a heat receiving surface and a heat sink portion disposed away from the heat receiving surface. A heat resistant enclosure that includes a top encasing that is at least partially transparent, and a bottom encasing that is joined to the top encasing to create an airtight seal. The bottom encasing having a cavity for receiving at least part of the heat receiving element such that at least part of the heat sink portion is in direct contact with the bottom encasing. A vacuum is provided in a space within the enclosure between at least a part of the heat receiving surface and the top encasing. Solar energy is transmitted to the heat receiving surface through the transparent top encasing and is transferred through the heat receiving element to the heat sink portion.
