The European project COOPERANT successfully wrapped up its participation in the 18th European Congress on Advanced Materials and Processes (FEMS EUROMAT 2025) in Granada. The international congress served as a premier platform for the project team to present breakthroughs in advanced materials designed for high-temperature Concentrated Solar Power (CSP) systems.
Throughout the week, representatives from the COOPERANT consortium engaged with world-leading experts in materials science and renewable energy technologies, driving discussions on how specialized, high-temperature materials can significantly improve the efficiency, storage capabilities, and durability of CSP plants.
Advancing Materials for the Clean Energy Transition
EUROMAT 2025 provided an ideal environment to foster technical dialogue and explore new avenues for industrial decarbonization. COOPERANT’s presence highlighted key strategic focus areas:
- High-Temperature Material Performance: Showcasing material solutions engineered to withstand extreme thermal operational environments.
- Optimized Solar Efficiency: Leveraging advanced materials to enhance thermal energy storage (TES) and energy transfer processes.
- Strategic Networking: Establishing valuable connections across academia, technology providers, and industrial partners to support future scale-up efforts.
