The Solar Steam project will demonstrate a solution for the use of solar heat in industrial processes that overcomes the current barriers associated with this energy source. The approach is based on the development of an innovative solar thermal collector by Larkfleet Ltd using novel optimised Fresnel lenses to create low-medium temperature thermal energy for use in the manufacturing sector. Using Cranfield University expertise in precision engineering and concentrated solar thermal energy, this system will be modular and compact to be easily installed and operated for easy installation and operation. This technology will drastically reduce the need for natural gas and coal generators, and provide a more affordable and sustainable source of low-medium heat.

太阳能蒸汽项目将展示一种在工业过程中使用太阳能的解决方案，该解决方案可以克服目前与这种能源相关的障碍。这种方法是基于Larkfleet有限公司开发的一种创新的太阳能集热器，该集热器使用新型的优化菲涅尔透镜来产生用于制造业的中低温度热能。利用克兰菲尔德大学在精密工程和集中太阳能方面的专业知识，该系统将是模块化和紧凑的，易于安装和操作，易于安装和操作。这项技术将极大地减少对天然气和煤炭发电机的需求，并提供一种更负担得起和更可持续的中低热量来源。
