Solar collector is an important technology for the effective utilisation of solar energy that the earth is blessed with. Flat plate solar collectors present a simple and easy to maintain design and thus are widely used for low and medium temperature applications. But being less efficient than alternatives, justifying the initial investment of flat plate solar collectors becomes difficult in the long run. This paper presents the efforts of researchers in the past some years to improve the efficiency of flat plate solar collectors through the improvement and optimization of the existing design. This paper will be beneficial for exploring the range of research avenues in the field of optimization and efficiency improvement of flat plate solar collectors.
