Our prototype Monolit-e
Within the framework of the solidTES technological development as an energy storage technology, CADE has a demonstrator prototype of its monolit-e application in its Innovation Factory located in Albacete, Spain. Monolit-e is an energy storage solution in the form of heat based on solid materials, specially designed for integrating various renewable electrical sources and providing […]
solidTES, the renewable, integrated and intelligent heat storage solution
The deployment of energy storage is necessary and crucial for a world with 100% renewable energy generation, and at CADE, we have always been aware of this. That’s why we have a long track record in developing thermal energy storage solutions, known as solidTES. Our solidTES solution, especially in its monolit-e and megalit-e systems, is […]
EDITOR’s Research Paper: Dynamic Simulation Model of a Parabolic Trough Collector System with Concrete Thermal Energy Storage
Among EDITOR project results dissemination activities, the members of the project consortium presented at #SolarPACES’2018 the research paper “Dynamic Simulation Model of a Parabolic Trough Collector System with Concrete Thermal Energy Storage for Process Steam Generation”. This paper describes the dynamic simulation model, , of a parabolic trough collector loop with a thermal energy storage […]
CADE proudly announces the first six months of EDITOR steam production
The EDITOR CSP (concentrated solar plant), and Solid-TES (concrete thermal storage), have been continuously delivering process steam during the last six months to KEAN Soft Drinks’ factory in Limassol (Cyprus). Automatic operation of the system for the steam production mode is also achieved. This is the first plant of its class in the Island of Cyprus which […]
Solar Thermal heat for industrial processes: Decarbonize and save? Definitely yes
The industry is today faced with the challenge of a changing scenario, in which the perspective on a sustainable energy model and with a reduction in CO2 emissions is already an urgent reality. It is necessary, already today, to decarbonize current energy models and reduce energy generation costs More than 70% of the industry’s consumption […]
