Summary
Energy is a core topic to the mitigation of global warming and climate change. Energy storage plays a crucial role in the development, progress and penetration of renewable energy sources, allowing dispatchability of supply.\nRegarding the current situation of renewable electricity generation, dominated by solar PV and wind, concentrated solar power (CSP) is one renewable energy technology with significant potential to increase the share of renewable\nelectricity generation in the future.\nNEWS4CSP aims to develop and validate new solutions for thermal energy storage using new formulations of molten salt mixtures, eutectic (LiNaK)2CO3, simply referred to as LiNaK, with nanoparticles, and to reach simultaneously high working temperatures, high energy density and improved heat transfer rates with low corrosivity for structural materials.\nAdvances on the measurement of the heat capacity, viscosity and thermal conductivity of LiNaK are described and discussed.
