CADE, together with first-class international players are developing a new generation of CSP plants based on Molten Salts as HTF in the framework of MSLOOP 2.O project.
MSLOOP 2.0 project started in November 2016 and is being developed by a European consortium composed of five partners from three European countries: Spain, Germany and Italy. The project is receiving funding from the EC under Fast Track to Innovation Programme (H2020).
MSLOOP aims to validate a business opportunity consisting of developing a cost effective solar field for CSP Parabolic Trough Power Plants using optimized ternary molten salts as HTF with an innovative hybridization system (HYSOL). The result of the project will be a new solution of CSP commercial plant with at least a 20 % LCOE (levelized cost of energy) reduction; capable of providing firm and dispatchable electricity through a disruptive hybrid plant concept and more environmentally sustainable.
Aplicaciones para la generación de calor de proceso en plantas CSP:
Concerning incipient market penetration of industrial CSP process heat applications, CADE will share with the attendants, the features and results of EDITOR Project. EDITOR consists of a pioneer demo CSP plant provided with a concrete-based Thermal Energy Storage system (TES) that is aimed to supply thermal energy to a beverages production facility in Cyprus, on a 24/7 basis.
EDITOR’s goal is not just to verify an innovative, groundbreaking system to storage energy based on concrete, but it will also operate on temperatures over 400°C, which is made possible thanks to a new receiver tube and an innovative, environmentally friendly silicone-based thermal oil.
CSP Process Heat applications are currently emerging as a promising technology application for intensive heat industrial consumers. CADE is involved in process CSP applications since 2010 playing the role of TES technology provider and plant engineering and integrator.
