Modular High Efficiency Solar Thermal

HelioFocus is a leader in high-efficiency modular solar thermal systems. The company focuses on the repowering market where it develops turn-key equipment to boost existing power plants, mainly coal fired and combined cycle plants. This market, estimated as $3B in the US southwest, allows the company to establish its breakthrough technology without reliance on project finance.
HelioFocus HS-100 product, is based on a large, low cost, parabolic dish concentrator that focuses light onto a receiver that heats air to the temperature and pressure specification of microturbines. The waste heat of the turbine is used to produce high quality steam that is fed into the steam cycle of existing power plants.
Our solution is uniquely suited to meet the real estate limitations of existing power plants while delivering both electricity and steam, reliably and at a competitive cost.
