ADPO Antwerp, Belgium
Solar process heat
Project description
Parabolic trough thermal power plant
Project partner
AZTEQ
Aim of the project
On the site of a logistics center for chemical products in the port of Antwerp, this solar heat supply system was built to cover the accruing heat demand proportionally by solar heat. The solar field consists of HT/SL5770 parabolic troughs and has a mirror surface of 1,100 m². Its capacity is 0.5 MW and it produces approximately 0.47 GWh of solar heat annually.
