The IN POWER’s Newsletter is available! Click here to read it!

In this newsletter, you will learn about recent results and activities including future steps the researchers will make.

The following developments have been made lately: the 3D design of mirrors, the manufacturing of pre-test mirror battery and the reflectivity test are finished. Moreover, the optimization and manufacturing of reflective coating with the definition of the PVD layers combination are completed too. The selection and the optimization of TES materials with high-level screening is also done, and the PCM TES materials are being tested.
