Improvements of ullage systems for solar thermal plants
HTF is a heat transfer fluid widely used in solar thermal power plants as an exchange fluid for steam generation, as well as for heating molten salts in energy storage systems. Depending on the size and design of each plant, the amount of thermal fluid that circulates in a solar thermal power plant is usually […]
LEVEL C inspections in Spanish CSP Plants, are they ready?
Most of concentrated solar plants installed in Spain are currently immersed on “suffering” level C inspections on their equipment and pressure elements.
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 […]
CADE to participate as speaker in the CSP FOCUS MENA 2018, next June 27-28 in Marrakech Marocco
In Session 5: Frontier Technologies and Research Results, CADE will present progress and results of the most promising R+D projects in which the company is currently immersed. 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 […]
MSLOOP PROJECT: THE NEW GENERATION OF CSP PLANTS
MSLOOP aims to validate a technology 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. CADE takes part of the consortium together with COBRA, SCHLAICH BERGERMANN PARTNER, ARCHIMEDE SOLAR and UNIVERSIDAD COMPLUTENSE DE MADRID The MSLOOP 2.0 consortium […]
EDITOR Project. 24h Continuous thermal power supply based on CSP and concrete thermal energy storage
The system shall consist of a mid-sized parabolic trough collector loop combined with a concrete thermal energy storage, and it is experimentally designed for industrial applications that require heating or cooling on a 24 hour basis. CADE, in consortium with protarget AG, Deutsches Zentrum für Luft- und Raumfahrt e.V. / German Aerospace Center (DLR), Solar-Institut Jülich of the Aachen […]
