Title:
SBIR Phase I: A Novel Engine for Dramatically Improved Efficiency in a Geothermal-CSP Hybrid
Agency:
NSF
Contract:
0945502
Award Amount:
$149,987.00
Abstract:
This SBIR Phase I project will demonstrate that a novel thermodynamic cycle could enable a 50% improvement in conversion efficiency from geothermal and concentrated solar sources when the two are synergistically combined.
The broader/commercial impact of the proposed project could be as much as a 50% improvement in system efficiency and the enabling of a new paradigm for geothermal and concentrated solar power.
