Technology researched at Cranfield University that harnesses concentrated solar power to desalinate sea water is being adopted by a new smart city under construction in Saudi Arabia. NEOM – a region in northwest Saudi Arabia on the Red Sea being built from the ground up as a living laboratory – [...]
Cranfield University research is part of the latest technology included in a multi-purpose concentrated solar power plant which has opened in Egypt. The €22M project was funded by the European Union Framework 7 programme and the City for Scientific Research and Technological Applications (SRTA-City). The aim of the research consortium [...]
Research from Cranfield University has contributed to technology being used in a new multi-purpose concentrated solar power (CSP) plant in Egypt. The €22 million (£19.3m) project was funded by the EU Framework Seven programme and the City for Scientific Research and Technological Applications (SRTA-City). Located in Borg El Arab near [...]
The University is home to the largest CSP research activity in the UK and Cranfield is the only UK representative on the EERA (European Energy Research Alliance) Joint Committee on CSP.
Cranfield University’s ‘Global CSP Laboratory’ is the home of an internationally recognised research and manufacturing team working on Concentrating Solar Power (CSP) and Solar Thermal (ST).
Cranfield University and Global CSP, developers of the world’s first precision engineered solar energy collector system, are to work together on two solar energy projects.
