Technological interfaces between solar fuel technologies and other renewables

Topic description

ExpectedOutcome:

Project results are expected to contribute to some of the following expected outcomes:

• Advance the European scientific basis, technological leadership and global role in the area of renewable and solar fuels, while creating evidence for policy making;
• Provide breakthrough solutions towards a fossil-free economy and ecosystem by bridging solar energy and other renewables in boosting renewable fuel production and storage with the potential of strongly reducing CAPEX and OPEX/toe, high penetration in the energy system, ensuring stability and security of energy supply;
• Increase European technology competitiveness in solar and renewable fuel technologies, thus supporting the EU goals for climate protection, energy independence and economic growth.

Development of energy transmitting technological interfaces to couple solar fuel technologies to other renewables such as from e.g. biosources or directly connected renewable power generation, which allow for efficient feed in of other forms of renewable energy into solar fuel conversion technologies and allow for efficient and continuous renewable fuel production.

Activities are expected to achieve TRL 4 by the end of the project – see General Annex B.
