Concentrated solar power components
3 European H2020 organizations list this as part of their work — 1 as their primary capability.
Most active in this area
- SAINT-GOBAIN CENTRE DE RECHERCHES ET D'ETUDES EUROPEEN
Saint-Gobain's European R&D center specializing in advanced ceramics, high-temperature alloys, and SiC materials for energy and mobility applications.
“COMPASsCO2 focuses on materials for supercritical CO2 power plants, including particle/sCO2 heat exchangers and novel high-temperature alloys — their largest funded project (EUR 702,800).”
FR6 projects - WALTER TOSTO SPA
Italian industrial manufacturer of pressure vessels and energy components, active in CSP, nuclear, and biomass-to-power R&D projects.
“NEXTOWER focused on advanced materials for next-generation CSP tower receivers, where WT contributed manufacturing expertise.”
IT3 projects - SUGIMAT SL
Spanish industrial specialist in high-temperature CSP components, thermal storage materials, and supercritical CO2 power cycle hardware.
“Both HIFLEX and COMPASsCO2 target CSP-specific hardware — particle receivers, solar towers, and particle/sCO2 heat exchangers — placing CSP component design at the core of SUGIMAT's H2020 activity.”
