Using solar radiation, they have engineered a device that can deliver heat at the high temperatures needed for the production processes. The team led by Emiliano Casati, a scientist in the Energy and Process Systems Engineering Group, and Aldo Steinfeld, Professor of Renewable Energy Carriers, has developed a thermal trap.

However, this technology has difficulties transferring solar energy efficiently above 1,000°C. To boost the efficiency of solar receivers, Casati turned to semitransparent materials such as quartz, which can trap sunlight -- a phenomenon called the thermal-trap effect.
At higher temperatures, heat loss by radiation increases and reduces the efficiency of the plants. A major advantage of the thermal trap developed by ETH Zurich researchers is that it minimises radiative heat losses. Our approach significantly improves the efficiency of solar absorption,” says Casati.
Our standardized photovoltaic container and energy storage products are engineered for reliability, safety, and easy deployment. All systems include comprehensive monitoring and control systems with remote management capabilities.
