High Temparature concentrated solar thermal power plan with particle receiver and direct thermal storage (NEXT-CSP)
Start date: Oct 1, 2016, End date: Sep 30, 2020,
According to the Integrated Roadmap of the Set-plan, and to reach the new EU target of 27% of renewable energies in 2030, there is the need to rapidly expand the use of all renewable energy sources in Europe to accelerate the fight against global climate change. This requires the acceleration of development of new options that are emerging today, particularly, technologies that solve the key issue ...

High Temperature Solar-Heated Reactors for Industrial Production of Reactive Particulates (SOLPART)
Start date: Jan 1, 2016, End date: Dec 31, 2019,
The main objective of the SOLPART project is to develop, at pilot scale, a high temperature (950°C) 24h/day solar process suitable for particle treatment in energy intensive industries (e.g. cement or lime industries). The project aims at supplying totally or partially the thermal energy requirement for CaCO3 calcination by high temperature solar heat thus reducing the life cycle environmental imp ...

Concentrated Solar Power in Particles (CSP2)
Start date: Dec 1, 2011, End date: Nov 30, 2015,
The CSP2 project puts forward an alternative heat transfer fluid (HTF) for concentrating solar power (CSP) plants. We propose to use dense gas-particle suspensions -DPS- (approximately 50% of solid) in tubes as HTF; these tubes set in a bundle constitute the solar absorber (receiver), placed at the top of a central receiver CSP system. This new HTF behaves like a liquid although it permits to exte ...
