247Solar Inc. products

247Solar Plants™ are true third-generation concentrated solar power (CSP) products that use a breakthrough solar receiver design, a proprietary thermal storage system and a unique turbine, combined with other proven technologies and off-the-shelf components, to produce the world’s lowest-cost 24/7 solar electricity.

The HeatStorE all-night battery stores power as heat instead of electricity. It operates almost exactly like electric batteries but it is the only battery able to operate at full power every hour of the year, even when fully discharged.

The 247Solar Heat2Power turbine is the first commercial turbine to produce power using atmospheric-pressure hot air, with no combustion or emissions. With the 247Solar Heat2Power turbine, industrial facilities that produce hot exhaust can now harness an otherwise-wasted resource to power operations. It works when high-temperature industrial exhaust gas (min. 850?/1500F) is supplied to the turbine at ambient pressure, where it passes through a proprietary high-temperature heat exchanger. This transfers the heat to the turbine’s compressed air, which enters the turbine’s expander at the required pressure and temperature to drive the turbine. No fuel is required, and no emissions are produced by this process. Industrial facilities can also sell this emissions-free power as an additional revenue stream.

World’s highest-temperature solar air heater; Concentrates sunlight to heat ambient pressure air to more than 1800 degrees F (970 degrees C), 50% higher than conventional CSP. No moving parts. Super-heated air powers the turbines and charges the thermal storage.

World’s lowest cost high-temperature; Stores the sun’s energy as heat instead of electricity, using ordinary sand, Captures excess grid, PV or wind power via resistance heating, 4-20+ hours of storage at a fraction of the cost of batteries.
