On August 14,Power China Zhongnan Survey and Design Institute Co.,Ltd made an open inquiry on the construction and installation project of heat storage and exchange island and conventional island of Wusitong concentrated solar power+pv integration project in Tokxun County,Turpan City. Name of Tendering Service: Construction and installation work of Heat storage and Exchange Island and …
Abstract: The two-step solar thermochemical cycle is a prospective clean energy technology that enables the direct splitting of water and carbon dioxide for solar fuel production. However, immature oxygen carriers fundamentally restrict the solar-to-fuel conversion efficiency and thus prevent this technology from immediate industrial uptake. Focusing on the conventional iron-based oxygen carriers, this study intends …
Abstract: Thermochemical energy storage systems have a high potential to support a future energy supply based on renewables by providing comparably high storage capacities and option for long-term, cold and loss free storage, that allows a flexible utilization in several application areas. Due to its cost efficiency and abundance the reaction system Ca(OH)2/CaO is currently …

According to Jianjian Su,chairman of Gansu Concentrated Solar Power Co.,LTD,the project was identified as the first batch of concentrated solar power demonstration projects …
Guazhou County,located in the western end of Hexi Corridor in Gansu Province,has an annual precipitation of less than 45 mm and evaporation of up to 3300 mm.The territory is windy and sandy,and the vegetation is sparse.The oasis area once was less than 15%of the county area.Guazhou area is known as the»wind field in the world». …
How can Synhelion’s solar receiver reach such high temperatures? Synhelion’s solar receiver achieves a temperature of 1,500°C and higher. That’s unprecedented. Even the Gen3 particle-based solar receiver being pilot-scale tested now at Sandia – and the DLR CentRec receiver licensed to Heliogen – operate at the (relatively!) lower temperature of 1,000°C. One of Synhelion’s solar …
