ARCHIMEDE SOLAR ENERGY (owned by Angelantoni Group) Industry production facility (about 200 employees)
1) A 1st European Patent (and two subsequent Patents) on oxide-based Cermet materials (one of the key technology of the receiver tube) was deposited, with technology solution proposed according to the production and market requirements; 2) Laboratory sputtering pilot plant “ENEA-1” , proprietary design, has been installed in the Enea laboratories as prototype pilot plant for the production of the receiver tube. 3) The “ENEA-1” sputtering demostration plant was placed at Archimede Solar Energy (Angeloantoni Group); 4) By using this first demonstration plant Archimede Solar Energy supplied the first hundreds of receiver tubes for “Archimede” ENEL power station sited in Priolo Gargallo (SC), i.e. the test field with real operating conditions. 5) A 2nd PCT Patent on nitride-based Cermet materials was deposited (high temperature solar coating with higher deposition rate and lower cost with respect to the previous Enea patented coating) and finalized in different world countries. 6) A Laboratory sputtering pilot plant “ENEA-2”, proprietary design, used for R&D on spectrally selective coating for receiver tubes (an experimental machine with high flexibility) was installed in Enea Lab with manufacturing functional approach equivalent to the production plants . 7) ENEA has developed the concept design of the sputtering apparatus, 75 meters long, with a production capacity of 70.000 receiver tubes/year, both for high and medium temperature employment, built in the ASE production facility. 8) On the 14th September 2011, Archimede Solar Energy opened in Massa Martana (Perugia) a new manufacturing plant.
