The parabolic concentrator (C) with parabolically curved rotating sectors Table 1, allows to realize concentrators of great dimensions without any reduction of steadiness of the same in the presence of strong wind, consequently, the carrying and the movement structures shall be lighter and more economic. The above said structures have a wide application in those sectors where are needed high temperatures and receivers as: Stirling motor, fuel cells, steam reformer, desalinators and co-generation systems. Furthermore construction and assembly simplicity and carrying easiness. The essential components of the concentrator (C) are: the parabolically curved rotating sectors (t) with reflecting material (Cl); the carrying structure (T) of said sectors; tie rod systems (m) that in the absence of strong wind, provide to the sectors (t) the initial configuration of the concentrator (C). In the presence of strong wind, the sectors (t) carry out a rotation to make the wind flow away so as to reduce the impact with the paraboloid's structure; when the strong wind ceases, the tie rod systems (m) carry the rotating sectors (t) to the initial position restoring the configuration of the parabolic concentrator (C).
