Thermal storage as a key element in the renewable electrification of industrial processes
Industrial processes, unlike the tertiary and residential sectors, require a higher proportion of heat than electricity. For this reason, the integration of renewable energies in these processes must consider thermal components that replace fossil generation systems. In this sense, different ways of obtaining renewable heat arise: Through biomass Through solar thermal energy Through renewable photovoltaic […]
Decarbonize using Co2. Are we crazy?
The new opportunities for the use of carbon dioxide (CO2) in the development of products and services are attracting the attention of governments, but especially of industry. In the special report of the IPPC (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change) issued in 2018[1], three routes are shown (Figure 1) on how global anthropogenic emissions must change […]
R&D Activities: CADE’s growth engine
In 2009, CADE created a specific department for the development of Research, Development and Innovation (R+D+i) activities, providing it with its own personnel and means for the development of various technological initiatives. A strategic initiative whose purpose was, and is, to channel and enhance the knowledge developed in multiple sectors and clients to offer high-impact […]
Industrial solar thermal energy is here to stay
In recent times, the pandemic and geopolitical tensions have caused both gas and electricity to increase in price to levels never seen before. At the end of April 2022, gas stood at 92 euros/MWh and electricity at 205 euros/MWh. And it is that this phenomenon is causing a strong impact on those industries that depend […]
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 […]
Live Webinar: Heat batteries – a game changer
Our colleague Víctor Alberto Ruiz Martínez will participate in the second episode of the Absolicon Solar Collector AB webinar series on #SolarThermal applications in the industry. March 31 14:00 (CTE – Central European Time) In this conference we will talk about our Process CSP technology, customized solutions for the integration of solar thermal energy in the industry, with an energy price […]
