Solar collector technologies
HelioTrough Parabolic Trough Collector:
At the EMSP, TSK Flagsol has installed the second generation of the large-aperture parabolic trough collector: HelioTrough® 2.0. The molten salt loop is heated by four of these collectors, having a total length of 684 m and an energy collection area of more than 4,500 m². Under ideal conditions this is enough to generate up to 3,500 kW of power.
The collector technology is characterized by a continuous torque tube, rendering the collector stiff and precise. Each collector with 19-m-long elements has been manufactured in a field factory on site and lifted into place by cranes.
