Solar Facilities for the European Research Area-Second Phase (SFERA-II)
Start date: Jan 1, 2014, End date: Dec 31, 2017,
Solar Energy, as the primary source of renewable energy, will contribute a major part of this share, and its conversion by concentrating technologies for concentrating solar power (CSP) and heat generation has long been proven cost-effective for a wide range of applications. Several CSP projects have recently been put into operation. Some 2.400 MW are under construction and several GW are in advan ...

Research Cooperation in Renewable Energy Technologies for Electricity Generation (REELCOOP)
Start date: Sep 1, 2013, End date: Aug 31, 2017,
REELCOOP stands for REnewable ELectricity COOPeration, and will address 5 areas: photovoltaics (PV), concentrated solar power (CSP), solar thermal (ST), bioenergy and grid integration. REELCOOP will develop decentralised (distributed) building integrated PV systems and ST/biomass micro-cogeneration systems, as well as centralised generation of electricity in hybrid solar/biomass power plants. This ...

THE EUROPEAN SOLAR RESEARCH INFRASTRUCTURE FOR CONCENTRATED SOLAR POWER (EU-SOLARIS)
Start date: Nov 1, 2012, End date: Oct 31, 2016,
EU-SOLARIS aims to create a new legal entity to explore and implement new and improved rules and procedures for reserach infrastructures (RI) for Solar Thermal Electricity (STE) technology, in order to optimise RI development and RTD coordination. According to what was communicated by ESFRI, EU-SOLARIS is expected to be the first of its kind, where Industrial needs and private funding will play a ...

PhotoVoltaic Cost r€duction, Reliability, Operational performance, Prediction and Simulation (PVCROPS)
Start date: Nov 1, 2012, End date: Oct 31, 2015,
PV CROPS addresses 3 key objectives of the call topic:1) Improvement of performance, reliability and lifetime2) Cost reduction of PV systems3) Better integration of PV into gridThe 2 first objectives lead to a lower Levelized Cost of Energy, LCoE. So, the main objectives of PV CROPS are:1- Reduction of 30% of the LCoE of PV to achieve 0.14-0.07 €/kWh by 2020 and 0.20–0.09 €/kWh by 2015 and an incr ...

Small Scale Solar Cooling Device (ALONE)
Start date: Oct 1, 2008, End date: Nov 30, 2012,
Solar cooling technologies use solar thermal energy provided through solar collectors to power thermally driven cooling machines. Cooling demand is rapidly increasing in many parts of the world: the combination of solar thermal and cooling has a high potential to replace conventional cooling machines based on electricity and depleting refrigerants. However, while larger solar cooling systems have ...
