Final Event: “Back to the Future – A Forward-Thinking Approach to Concentrating Solar Technologies”
OMEC, as the leader of the Communication, Dissemination, and Exploitation Work Package, is pleased to announce that the Final Event of the COMPASsCO2 project took place on April 24, 2025.
The hybrid event was held in Husinec u Řeže, Czech Republic, and online providing a platform to present the key takeaways of the project to the public.
The event featured valuable discussions on the integration of Concentrated Solar Power (CSP) into sCO₂ power plants, focusing on:
-
System efficiency and thermodynamic performance
-
Solid particles and coatings for heat transfer and storage
-
Cr-superalloys and coatings for particle/s-CO₂ heat exchangers
-
Material screening and lifetime estimation using advanced modeling systems
-
Industrial applications and future research directions
