Component of csp plant

[Beatrice Gustinetti]

hallo, I'm looking for enterprise producing the component for a CSP plant, with Fresnel technology.(mirror, receiver, coating etc..). Can you help me?

[Ole Garcia Wilke]

Hallo Beatrice,

I don´t know if it helps you, but i can tell you the enterprises - I know -, which develop fresnel csp plants. But properbly you ask for their component-subcontractors (in the case they have subcontractors for the different parts of the collector field, unfortunately i am not informed if and what subcontractors they have; maybe you try to ask the companys)

As far as I know there are:

Ausra (US/AUS) www.ausra.com

NOVATEC BioSol AG (Germany) www.novatec-biosol.com

Solar Power Group (25% share of MAN Ferrostaal) www.spg-gmbh.com



Project developer Solar Heat & Power Europe GmbH www.shp-europe.com


for process heat only:

www.pse.de

www.solitem.de

I hope it might help a little bit. :)

Maybe the PowerPoint Presentations of the Forum 10,000 Solar GigaWatts at Hanover Fair 2008 (organised by TREC) are also helpful. They can be downloaded as zip-files at www.desertec.org (look at the right side of the homepage).

By the way: Are there italian people supporting the DESERTEC-concept and are there initiatives to maybe start an italian division of TREC, TREC-Italy so to say?

Dear Ole, thanks for your answer.
I knew these companies, I've been in Freaiburg, at Fraunhofer Institute, and tehy told me about them and their plants. Thank for the download!

I cannot answer your question, but I can tell you that my company is interested in CSP Fresnel..

Beatrice, we produce curved panels that can be used for the reflectors - with either film or glass mirrors. Please let me know if you would like to learn more.

Dear David, we are partecipating to a national funding with a project about CSP Fresnel. Our idea is to partecipate to the 7FP with a similar project, so it could be interesting to know about your products. Please, mail me: [e-mail]. Thanks!
