Water Saving for Solar Concentrated Power (WASCOP)

Start date: Jan 1, 2016, End date: Dec 31, 2019,

Concentrating Solar Power is one of the most promising and sustainable renewable energy and is positioned to play a massive role in the future global generation mix, alongside wind, hydro and solar photovoltaic technologies. Although there is definitely perspective for the technology for rapid grow, success of CSP will ultimately rely on the ability to overcome obstacles that prevent its mass adop ...

Molten Salt Loop 2.0: key element for the new solar thermal energy plants. (MSLOOP 2.0)

Start date: Nov 1, 2016, End date: Apr 30, 2019,

Despite the encouraging scenario of Wide Solar Thermal Electricity market - it is a reality today with 4.9 GW in operation worldwide in 2015, forecasting 260 GW in 2030, 664GW in 2040 and finally to reach a 12% of total electricity generation by 2050 (982 GW) - CSP growth has been slower than expected because several issues have not been overcome yet. It is not as cost-efficient as other technolog ...

Multipurpose Applications by Thermodynamic Solar (MATS)

Start date: Jul 19, 2011, End date: Jan 18, 2015,

The proposed MATS Project aims at promoting the exploitation of concentrated solar energy through small and middle scale facilities, suitable to fulfil local requirements of power and heat, and easily to back-up with the renewable fuels locally already available or that can be expressly produced. The implementation of the project will allow to test the CSP (Concentrating Solar Power) technology in ...
