Solar thermal energy concentrates large amounts of heat through solar collection systems to generate electricity in a sustainable manner. Efficient management of this heat is essential to ensure plant performance, especially over long thermal cycles and at high temperatures. Heat transfer equipment plays a critical role, not only in energy conversion, but also in improving operational stability and reducing thermal losses.
AITESA designs and implements specific heat exchangers to work with fluids such as molten salts, thermal oils or superheated steam, both in solar loop and thermal storage systems. These equipments are optimized to minimize thermal losses, to manage in a stable way the energy flow in the different phases of the day and to maintain efficiency even in partial load periods. The selection of materials and the thermal design are adjusted to the characteristics of the solar resource and the operating regime of each plant.
Thanks to our experience, we collaborate in solar thermal tower projects, offering robust, durable and highly efficient solutions. Our focus is on ensuring optimal utilization of solar heat with operational reliability and low maintenance.
