solar cooling and distributed power generation

NEP Solar RSS News Feed NEP Solar News Feed http://www.nep-solar.com/ designed by FLYART.com NEP Solar's PolyTrough 1800 process heat collector receives EN 12975-2 Performance Certification from SPF Performance tests of NEP Solar's latest collector product, the PolyTrough 1200 concentrating solar collector, were successfully completed at the Swiss solar testing and certification institute SPF. The test report is publicly available for download at www.solarenergy.ch or under the download section at www.nep-solar.com. Performance tests of NEP Solar's latest collector product, the PolyTrough 1200 concentrating solar collector, were successfully completed at the Swiss solar testing and certification institute SPF. The test report is publicly available for download at www.solarenergy.ch or under the download section at www.nep-solar.com. NEP Solar Process Heat System “On Sun” at the Tête de Moine Cheese Factory in Saignelégier, Switzerland NEP Solar’s latest solar process heat plant is on sun in the Swiss Jura Mountains. The plant features the latest development of the PolyTrough collector and is installed on the rooftop of the dairy factory extension of Emmi Group’s Fromagerie de Saignelégier AG where the famous Tête de Moine AOC cheese is produced. The plant consists of 17 PolyTrough 1800 collectors with a total collector area of 627 m². At full sunshine the solar field produces 360 kW of renewable process heat. The medium circulated through the collectors is water, which supplies high temperature heat through a plate heat exchanger to the factory’s hot water circuit and storage tank. The solar thermal system was integrated into the existing equipment with minimal adaption and process disruption. The solar collector facility is mounted on the newly inaugurated extension hall of the factory. This extension allows the factory to more than double their production of Tête de Moine cheese to almost a half a million wheels per year. “For the Fromagerie de Saignelégier it was important to not only think, but also act sustainably,” says Mr. Jean-Philippe Brahier, Chef d’Exploitation of the Fromagerie de Saignelégier. “The NEP Solar collector field allows us to reduce our fossil fuel consumption by 30,000 liters per year and thereby save 79 tons of CO2 emissions.” The installation adds to NEP Solar’s growing list of customers in the food industry. Already 2 other projects have been sold to food processing companies in Switzerland. Reference projects with applications ranging from desalination to solar cooling to co-generation have been sold on a global basis. “It is a great pleasure for us to feature our newest collector in this milestone project, after the award winning LESA project in Bever our second installation with the Emmi Group,” states Stefan Minder, CEO of NEP Solar AG. “The project shows that solar process heat can effectively be delivered from industrial rooftops with our concentrating technology”. The project is also a milestone for NEP Solar in that it is the first commercial project utilizing the new PolyTrough1800 collectors. These collectors were developed in conjunction with the Institute for Solar Technology SPF in Rapperswil, Switzerland (www.solarenergy.ch). The development and industrialization of NEP Solar’s new PolyTrough 1800 collector is supported by the Swiss Climate Foundation (Klimastiftung Schweiz, www.klimastiftung.ch) and CTI (www.kti.admin.ch). With this project Emmi and NEP Solar are pioneering the integration of solar thermal technologies to deliver high temperature process heat for industrial applications, an emerging market with huge potential. About the Fromagerie de Saignelégier AG: Founded in 1995, the Fromagerie de Saignelégier combines the most modern systems with the expertise of its employees to preserve the unique character of the Tête de Moine AOP.

Swiss Solar Award 2012 for ewz/LESA plant powered by NEP Solar collectors NEP Solar’s technology powers the Swiss Solar Award 2012 winning solar thermal plant realized by ewz and Lataria Engiadinaisa SA ewz and Lataria Engiadinaisa SA (LESA) won the Swiss Solar Award 2012 in the category “plants” (“Anlagen”). The concentrating solar thermal plant, using four PolyTrough 1200 collectors manufactured by NEP Solar AG, supplies steam to the Lataria Engiadinaisa SA (LESA) for milk processing. Built on the rooftop of the highest-located dairy factory in Europe, the four NEP Solar PolyTrough 1200 parabolic collectors, with a total aperture area of 115 m², deliver steam for milk processing. The plant is already operating reliably for almost a year under harsh environmental conditions such as snow and temperatures as low as minus 30°C. The system proves the potential of the technology in the alpine region. The high temperature system is expected to produce sufficient heat to replace 7000 liters of fossil fuel with an equivalent CO2 reduction of 18 Tons. ewz planned, financed, built and operates the solar thermal plant. Through an energy services arrangement ewz sells the heat to LESA. The project was supported by the Swiss Federal Office of Energy. The innovative plant, first of its kind in Switzerland, was honored with the 22nd Swiss Solar Award in the category “Plants”. The winning projects are selected by the Swiss Solar Agency (Solar Agentur Schweiz). About ewz: ewz is the Zurich Municipal Electric Utility. Energy Services offers innovative energy supply solutions with the goal of reducing CO2 emissions. To date there are 180 plants in operation which save around 19 600 tons per year.

NEP Solar is proud to be part of this high profile event. Swiss milk industry chooses NEP Solar concentrating collectors for the supply of solar process heat NEP Solar AG has received orders for delivery of parabolic trough collectors to two process heat installations with leading milk industry companies in Switzerland. NEP Solar AG has received orders for delivery of parabolic trough collectors to two process heat installations with leading milk industry companies in Switzerland. Both projects will be commissioned in summer 2012. NEP Solar will deploy its new PolyTrough 1800 collectors, which have a 50% larger aperture than the PolyTrough 1200 and are 10% more efficient. One of the installations was ordered by Emmi Group, the largest Swiss milk processor. The concentrating collector field has an active area of 627m2 and is mounted on the flat roof of the “Tête de Moine” cheese curing and ripening plant in Saignelégier in the Swiss Jura. The solar process heat will be injected in the existing hot water circuit and offset 30,000 liters of heating oil (79 tons of CO2) per year. Emmi already uses solar process steam generated by a NEP Solar collector field in Bever, eastern Switzerland, which was financed and installed 2011 by the Swiss utility ewz from Zürich. Ewz owns and operates the field and supplies the steam to the Emmi factory under a 15 year heat supply contract. The second project is with Cremo SA in Fribourg where the solar process heat installation will replace a significant amount of fossil fuel used for coffee cream production. 580m2 of NEP Solar collectors will be installed on an inclined roof structure in a very compact arrangement to maximize solar yield for the available roof surface.
