Unveiling the untapped potential of Solar Heat for Industrial Processes in the EU

SHIP2FAIR is the key project to integrate renewable solar heat from renewable energy in the Agro-food industrial processes, due to competitive and environmentally friendly solar technologies, innovative business lines and a user-friendly approach.

These assets are being integrated and improved, by fifteen partners during the life of this four-year-project, in four real fully operational industrial places sites of the Agro-food sector. These industrial sites will each install a demo-site each, in which up to 40% of the solar heat demand will be covered by solar thermal power.

The four operating real industrial sitesplants, and hosts of hosting the SHIP2FAIR’s flagship projects, have many years of experience in the fields of the winery, sugar, spirits and ham cooking fields respectively: Bodegas Roda in Spain, RAR Açucar in Portugal, Martini & Bacardi in Italy, and Loste-Tradi-France in France. By the end of 2022, SHIP2FAIR will have develop established feasibility studies for 10 SHIP projects more and prepared the ground for implementing other 100 SHIP projects by 2027.

This project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement No 792276.
