Abstract

Australia has one of the worlds best solar resources and well-established, growing centres for research in concentrating solar thermal power and solar thermochemical fuel technologies. However, the commercial deployment of these technologies in Australia is still in its infancy. To address this shortfall, several government incentive schemes have been established to promote their commercialisation and deployment. The federal funding support includes a number of initiatives to increase the technical readiness of solar thermochemical fuel technologies, including the development of a roadmap to identify the RD&D requirements and priorities to establish an industry in Australia. This paper will give an overview of previous research and outcomes before summarising current government schemes in Australia, as well as a brief summary of the research activities being currently undertaken.
