Dedicated to Continuous Innovation
IMAGE@Lina Hockaday, Mintek New Technology Group The scientific journal ‘Energies’ is arranging a Special Issue on ‘Solar Thermochemical Production of Material Commodities’ with a deadline for submissions on 1 September, 2021. We, as guest editors, are pleased to invite you to submit high-quality unpublished contributions on recent advances in applications of concentrated solar radiation to …
A newly established Concentrated Solar Power based test rig facility at Hyderabad can help the growing solar industry in India to test capability and performance of solar thermal components like solar receiver tubes, heat transfer fluids, concentrating mirrors. For the uninitiated, Concentrated Solar Thermal (CST) technologies use mirrors to reflect and concentrate sunlight onto a …
Heliogen is combining with the SPAC Athena Technology, one of the few so-called blank-check companies led by women. Founded in 2013, Heliogen uses mirrors that are positioned with artificial intelligence to reflect sunlight at a small receiver, generating an intense heat. That sunlight can be collected and processed to generate electricity even when the sun …
Beam Down Thermal Storage Test at Masdar Institute IMAGE@Nicolas Calvet Normally, power tower CSP heats molten salts by aiming concentrated sunlight up to a receiver on a tower that has molten salts flowing through pipes in the receiver to be heated and sent down the tower to store the sun’s energy as heat in a …
