The first solar furnace was created by French physicist Auguste Mouchot in the 1860s. Mouchot developed a solar concentrator that used mirrors to focus sunlight onto a receiver, generating steam for mechanical work. His work laid the foundation for solar thermal technologies, although it was not widely adopted at the time.
