SOLAR FUELS

FROM AIR AND SUNLIGHT

The solutions of Synhelion combine state-of-the-art solar tower systems with proprietary high-temperature thermochemical processes to produce solar fuels.

Research supported by:

Swiss Federal Office of Energy SCALABLE

to cover global demand

AFFORDABLE

alternative to fossil fuels

COMPATIBLE

with existing infrastructure

Kerosene Methanol Air

capture

The absorbing gas receiver efficiently delivers high-tempe- rature process heat beyond 1’500°C.

The thermochemical reactor enables

endothermic reactions for syngas production.

The thermal energy storage allows for

continuous 24/7 operation.
