To promote the test of bigger reversible Solid Oxide Cell (rSOC) modules, the MULTISTACK experimental platform has been built at CEA-Liten.
Congratulations to the team for the award received at the #SiliconPV2021 conference for the presentation of Jean-François LELIEVRE: "Desert Label Development for Improved Reliability and Durability of Photovoltaic Modules in Harsh Desert Conditions".
The CEA and the Pulp&Fuel consortium would like to invite you to a workshop as part of the EUBCE 29th European Biomass Conference & Exhibition.
EU-funded project TIGON has launched its presentation video on the new project website: discover how we will enhance microgrids for Europe's energy transition
Comepos is an acronym for 'Optimised Design and Construction of Positive Energy Houses', a large-scale project that evaluated the energy impact and carbon footprint of different prototypes of positive energy houses. It allowed experimenting, monitoring and analysing the performance of new solutions for different construction methods, climates and lifestyles of the inhabitants.
Evidence of its commitment to the circular economy, CEA-Liten, a CEA Tech institute, has developed an environmentally-friendly and energy-efficient method for recycling end-of-life solar photovoltaic panels.
CEA-Liten, a CEA Tech institute, has developed a battery that is lightweight, efficient, and highly reliable to power an artificial lung that can be transported in complete safety.
The CEA-Liten is strongly involved and contributed to this roadmap in particular on the circular economy of batteries.
CEA at INES reaches 18 % efficiency, 1 sun STC illumination, on perovskite modules of 10 cm² active area elaborated in air with gas assisted coating process.
The SELISI project aims to develop processes for recycling powder from sawing silicon bricks. The objective is to achieve various qualities of recycled material for recovery in different industrial sectors such as Li-ion batteries, silicon-based ceramics and photovoltaics.
École de l'Air, the military and aeronautical training school for officers of the French Air Force and Space Agency, has signed a Research and Development (R&D) partnership with CEA-Liten, Innovation Laboratory for New Energy Technologies and Nanomaterials, which is the leading European research center dedicated to energy transition. The aim: to develop a scientific ecosystem in the south of France.
Legrand, global specialist in electrical and digital building infrastructures, announces the launch of a new generation wireless and batteryless switch. This technological innovation was developed in collaboration with CEA, a major player in research, development and innovation.
Many paths are pursued to continuously improve the efficiency of photovoltaic solar cells and their environmental footprint. Among these, the use of a passivated poly-silicon-on-oxide contact on both sides of a silicon substrate is a promising way of achieving high conversion efficiencies with single or multi-junction photovoltaic cells.
The tools developed by CEA-Liten to dimension electrical and thermal networks can help to design network architectures coupling different energy vectors.
As a center for research on new energy technologies, CEA-Liten holds a strong belief that the circular economy must be an integral part of its projects. The institute has developed a new tool to assess its performance in this area. The tool will generate fact-based indicators that will provide insights into areas for improvement.
Defining Guaranties of Origin and Certificates for hydrogen is one of the highest priority to develop a hydrogen economy. In line with the previous stages, the European CertifHY 3 project will continue to significantly contribute to it.
Batteries Europe has published its Strategic Research Agenda, which outlines the research priorities for batteries that will allow Europe to become a competitive actor in the market.
As the number of electronic devices people use every day grows, higher-yield, more compact power converters will be needed more than ever. In research conducted for a Carnot Energie du Futur project called Nice GaN, CEA-Liten, a CEA Tech institute, developed software that can rapidly dimension the magnetic components inside power converters.
Consortium led by VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland Ltd up scales novel material solution to extend lifetime of industrial components. Extended lifetime reduces material and energy losses enhancing competitiveness and productivity of Europe’s heavy industry, while lowering environmental impact of the manufacturing.
CEA-Liten, a CEA Tech institute, has invented the first-ever thermal sensors to utilize thermoelectricity to keep power electronics like HEMT transistors from overheating. The innovation does not impact fabrication processes or costs.
Green hydrogen produced by electrolysis plays a crucial role in the energy transition. At the initiative of TNO, a number of leading knowledge institutes including CEA Liten have launched proposals to take electrolysis up a notch, fast.
CEA-Liten is a member of the Safetipaint 1 and 2 project consortia. These projects leveraged a safer-by-design approach to developing wear- and aging-resistant paints that also improve indoor air quality.
Electrolyzers used to produce hydrogen from electricity, can help balance supply and demand on electricity grids. CEA-Liten, a CEA Tech institute, recently took part in the EU QualyGridS project, which addressed the topic.
