Multiscale analysis of the radiative properties of materials for high-temperature processes
Author: Dr. Charles-Alexis Asselineau (IMDEA Energy) The production of high-temperature heat for industrial processes and electricity generation is responsible for more than 54% of global CO2 emissions [1]. In the EU alone, fossil fuels are the source of 40% of the electricity consumed in 2018 [2] and approximately 75% of the energy consumption of energy-intensive industries in 2016 [3]. Without doubts, these two sectors will undergo significant transformations in order to achieve the objectives of the Paris Agreement for the year 2030 notably…
