The MOST project aims to develop and demonstrate a zero-emission solar energy storage system based on benign, all-renewable materials. The MOST system is based on a molecular system that can capture solar energy at room temperature and store the energy for very long periods of time. This corresponds to a closed cycle of energy capture, storage and release.
The MOST project will develop the molecular systems as well as associated catalysts and devices to beyond state-of-the-art performance and scale. Specifically, hybrid solar collectors utilizing up to 80% of incoming solar energy will be designed and tested together with heat release devices, that combine MOST with thermal energy storage (TES) enabling rapid temperature ramp-up cycles delivering large temperature gradients.
The materials production will feature scalable, green chemistry production routes. Further, the project will build an innovation ecosystem around the project and engage with future users of the technology in order to ensure future development and EU capacity for future market implementation. EU is now the leading actor in the development of MOST (also referred to as “Solar thermal Fuels, STF”). The partners in this consortium account for ≈80% of EU research output in the field during the last 5 years. With this proposal, we combine some of the strongest research teams in order to build on and extend EU’s world leading role in the development of MOST systems.
