Obtaining sustainable fuels from solar energy is an ambitious project and poses major challenges for people and materials. In the MAfoS project, researchers from the Fraunhofer Center for High-Temperature Lightweight Design HTL are developing materials for the first industrial solar-to-fuel demonstration system.
Greentech Solar: Sustainable fuels are created from water, CO2 and sunlight in the mirror-studded tower
It almost sounds like a fairytale: Sustainable fuels are created from water, CO2 and sunlight in a tall, mirror-studded tower. Fraunhofer experts are contributing their know-how to this plan in a special project: “Material Advancements for Solar Fuels Technology,” or MAfoS for short, is the name of the project, in which a team of creative scientists at the Center for High-Temperature Lightweight Design HTL The Fraunhofer Institute for Silicate Research ISC developed pioneering materials for the first industrial solar-to-fuel demonstration system.
