Achieves temperatures in excess of 200 Degrees C at more than 50% efficiency (the percentage of incident solar radiation converted to useful heat energy) which current market incumbents cannot approach without tracking. Maintains efficiency even at high operating temperatures. Flat plate and other evacuated tube collectors exhibit good efficiency at lower temperatures but heat losses mean that ...
Steam engine is the most effective tool to build up local economy and to bring freedom and happiness to people. ...
In a market that has to ensure that dispatchable power is available at all times, Brenmiller Energy an innovative solar company, provides a modular solar steam generation product for power generation applications. ...
The solar powered steam power plant is a mini power plant that is meant to generate power at the location of the consumer hence playing a pivotal role in distributed power generation. ...
Last week’s announcement by GDF SUEZ and Solar Power Group of their plans to develop a 5 MW thermal CSP plant to supply superheated steam to the 150 MW Mejillones coal-fired plant in Northern Chile indicates that demand for CSP augmentation is growing. ...
Heavy industry can be a viable secondary market today for CSP producers, but questions remain on whether start-up costs are justifiable for industrial users, and how reliable CSP can be for processes that can't pace production by the sun. Solar thermal heat implies steam, and industries that need steam include refining, food processing, ...
Parabolic trough collectors are getting introduced into application for solar process steam generation and high efficient solar chilling. SOLITEM GmbH in Aachen develops and produces its PTC 1800 for these applications. ...
