SALTOpower Fast-Track school: Molten Salt technologies and energy system application

SALTOpower Fast-Track Schools are meant to provide evolutive training on scientific, research methodology and result assessment topics to the Industry, Candidate and Young Researchers, providing support to their respective evolution towards becoming Young and Leading Researchers in this field. Fast-Track Schools take place once a year and will be hosted consecutively by ENEA, DLR and UEvora. Each edition includes MS focused Lectures and Brainstorming Sessions, in support of Tutoring and Mentoring activities to Candidate and Young Researchers. SALTOpower Fast-Track School editions will focus on:

● FTS #1: MS basic research topics and SoA;

● FTS #2: MS experimental procedures and implementation;

● FTS #3: Technology benchmarking and Exploitation contents.

Project SALTOpower, gathering the unique experience of its Consortium - University of Évora, DLR and ENEA - in the development and operation of the most important Molten Salt (MS) Research Infrastructure (RI) at European level, aims at enhancing the scientific excellence and innovation capacity in the exploitation of this outstanding RI. With a strong focus on an enhanced career building framework for researchers in this field, SALTOpower seeks the development and implementation of a common scientific strategy further developing MS technologies on a material, component and system level. Aiming at creating the reference European facility for the development and testing of MS based technologies, SALTOpower pursues the enabling of energy storage and dispatchable power production solutions and the integration of different renewable energy sources, power, and gas grids.
