The giant honeycomb-like structure, known as the 'Synlight' experiment uses 149 large spotlights normally found in cinemas to simulate sunlight.
The group hope it will help shed light on new ways of making climate-friendly fuel.
They will focus the huge array of xenon short-arc lamps on a single 20-by-20 centimetre (8x8 inch) spot.
In doing so, scientists from the German Aerospace Centre, or DLR, will be able to produce the equivalent of 10,000 times the amount of solar radiation that would normally shine on the same sized surface.
'If you went in the room when it was switched on, you'd burn directly,' Professor Bernard Hoffschmidt, a research director at the DLR, where the experiment is housed in a protective radiation chamber, told the Guardian.
One area of the team's research will focus on how to efficiently produce hydrogen
