TESS (Thermal Energy Storage System)

A low-cost, highly scalable renewable energy storage device that stores energy as thermal power by heating and melting silicon derived from sand. It aims to capture 'spilt' energy from intermittent renewable sources and provide stable base load power.

planned 1 mention

Pilot plant feasibility study

A comprehensive study for a pilot plant near Adelaide incorporating concept flowsheet design, equipment selection, costs, risks, and opportunities for on-sun testing of photocatalytic water-splitting technology.

planned 1 mention

Lattice-water-assisted iridium oxide catalyst research

Research project at the University of Adelaide focused on developing high-efficiency iridium oxide catalysts for proton exchange membrane water electrolysis using a lattice-water-assisted mechanism.
