SHIP2FAIR Project obtains Mention of Honour in the EnerAgen Awards

29 Jun 2020

ShIP2Fair awarded in the category “Best energy improvement performance in the field of Renewable Energies

SHIP2FAIR  has received funded from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement No 792276 in 2018 to reduce fossil fuel dependence thanks to the integration of solar heat in industrial processes of plants, starting by the agri-food sector.

As project partner of SHIP2FAIR - coordinated by the Centre of Research for Energy Resources and Consumption, we are glad to announce that the project has obtained Mention of Honour in the EnerAgen Awards (ES) in the category of “Best energy improvement performance in the field of Renewable Energies”. EnerAgen is currently the main instrument for the cooperation and coordination between agencies and public organisms in the field of energy that operate at different territorial levels in Spain.

In line with this objective, the project is working on four demo-sites (Bodegas RODA, Martini & Rossi, Açucar RAR and Larnaudie). 

Bodegas RODA’s demo-site is already running, and the consortium is working on the engineering and constructions of the other three demo-sites, which will be all set by the beginning of 2021.

To ensure the suitable integration of solar thermal technologies in industrial plants and their maximal productivity, SHIP2FAIR project is developing two web-based applications: 

• the Replication tool, to combine the data from the solar generation and the process features in order to provide a first outlook on the SHIP integration within the production plants and to optimise the system according to the user’s needs;
• the Control Tool, to improve the integration of solar heat into industrial processes at different control levels while aiming to be as flexible as possible to be applied to a multiplicity of systems.
