EU-funded researchers are looking to hot air to overcome the supply and demand issues faced by solar energy and ease the clean energy transition.By Michael AllenAs the world shifts toward renewable ...

The panels used in the array combine photovoltaic solar power and concentrated solar thermal power in one attractive unit, and the smart technology utilizes a variety of reflector materials that ...

Now, barely over ten years later, it’s already closing. Called ‘concentrated solar’ or ‘thermal solar,’ the technology used at Ivanpah involves hundreds of thousands of computer ...

We develop, test and optimise innovative technologies to use concentrating solar thermal systems not only to generate electricity, but also to provide heat and fuels. Our research also focuses on ...
