The plant, using parabolic troughs and molten salt as the heat transfer medium will be built on the premises of the University of Evora, located around 130k, south east of Lisbon. The site and the plant infrastructure will be made available through an agreement with the Portuguese utility Energias de Portugal’s (EdP) innovation unit, EDP Inovação.
Siemens will build the plant with partner companies the German Aerospace Center (DLR), K+S AG, Senior Berghöfer GmbH and Steinmüller Engineering GmbH.
