Abstract:Particle-based concentrating solar power systems integrated with sCO2 power cycles offer high thermal efficiencies but require durable heat exchangers to transfer heat from high-temperature particles to the sCO2 working fluid. This study presents the design and optimization of a silicon…
UNSW engineers have tackled a longstanding problem at the heart of global agriculture: how to make urea for fertilizer without the intensity of emissions associated with fossil-fuel-powered factories. The solution is outlined in a study published recently in Nature Communications. Corresponding author Associate…
Oxford PV, a solar perovskite company operating in Europe, has opened its patent portfolio to American panel manufacturer First Solar. First Solar has signed a patent licensing agreement with Oxford PV, which provides First Solar with access to Oxford’s existing…
By Brad Kramer February 23, 2026 GameChange Energy Technologies has acquired the eBOS division from Terrasmart, a subsidiary of Gibraltar Industries. This acquisition expands GameChange Energy’s ability to support utility-scale solar projects with integrated solutions spanning from module to grid.…
Further hybridisation is planned in the region at FRV’s cluster of PV projects at Carmonita – Carmonita Ministerio (320MW/1,360MWh), Carmonita Sur (80MW/400MWh), Carmonita Norte (91MW/455MWh) and Carmonita IV (40MW/200MWh) – and 111MW/495MWh at San Serván 400, a cluster of three…
Abstract:In concentrated solar thermochemical cycles, CO2 utilization enables both energy storage and release. However, the high energy consumption associated with CO2 compression has limited the overall performance of solar power generation. In this work, an energy storage system coupling thermochemical…
Are you about to post an image online and want to feel fully confident about it? Do you sometimes pause and think if the image is real, edited, or created by AI? You are not the only one. These days,…
TWAICE start by setting the context: what BESS teams say their top priorities and constraints are in 2026. Using survey insights, the speakers highlight the most common pain points across BESS challenges. They also look at ‘friction factors’ that make…
