Potential of Concentrated Solar Power Plants in Algeria

Algeria has high levels of untapped solar potential and it is necessary to find solutions that take advantage of this fact. Concentrated Solar Power (CSP) plants are one of the available renewable technologies which have more potential in regions with high direct solar radiations. In this study, CSP plant potential in selected regions of southern …

High-temperature heat recovery from a solar reactor for the thermochemical redox splitting of H2O and CO2

The solar splitting of H2O and CO2 via a thermochemical redox cycle offers a viable pathway for producing sustainable drop-in fuels for the transportation sectors. The key performance metric is its solar-to-fuel energy efficiency, which is strongly dependent on the ability to recover heat during the temperature swing between the reduction and oxidation steps. High-temperature heat …
