DOE to award Thar Energy $9.4M to help advance more efficient supercritical-CO2-based power cycles

Green Car Congress

The DOE Office of Fossil Energy’s Strategic Center for Coal supports research and development of SCO 2 power cycle systems technologies in light of their potential advantages over conventional steam cycles. These recuperators help increase the overall efficiency of the cycle by limiting heat rejection from the cycle. Source: DOE.
