Description

Various test results from operation since October 2021 at the Évora Molten Salt Platform (EMSP) with ternary HTF-salt are discussed. A focus is on solar pre-heating of receivers, collector improvements and testing of the ternary salt for its physical properties and its chemical stability for operation up to 500 °C.
