? NEWS FLASH ? The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) has announced Multiscale Systems as one of six finalists of the American-Made Challenge Heliostat Prize. Multiscale will now advance to the “Assess” contest phase where we will advance our thermoplastic composite heliostat components from proof of concept to a prototype. Finalists have been awarded $180,000 each to develop their prototypes. Multiscale’s innovation focuses on replacing steel components within heliostat structures. Steel is costly, heavy, requires specialized equipment and training to install or repair, can rust and corrode, and suffers from volatile pricing. For concentrated solar power systems to compete effectively against other thermal energy sources like natural gas, it needs to be more cost effective. Thermoplastic composite components offer a compelling solution to this critical challenge. In addition to being significantly lighter they are: ?? UV and corrosion resistant ?? Sustainable and recyclable ??? Easier to install/repair ??? Experience less fatigue from thermal cycling ?? Able to take advantage of domestic scaled manufacturing Read the full news story: https://lnkd.in/eHFkzQkM
