The Thermal Energy Science & Technologies group is looking for multiple graduate interns to assist with the forthcoming heliostat consortium (HelioCon) and other existing projects. NREL, partnering with Sandia National Laboratories (Sandia) and the Australian Solar Thermal Research Institute (ASTRI), will develop and manage a national laboratory-led U.S. consortium to support research, development, validation, commercialization, and deployment of low-cost heliostats for concentrating solar power (CSP) and solar thermal (CST) applications.
This heliostat consortium (HelioCon) will work closely with the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) and a board of advisors composed of CSP developers, component suppliers, utilities, and international experts to achieve DOE SunShot objectives for U.S.-manufactured heliostat cost, performance, and reliability. To further advance U.S. heliostat technologies, HelioCon will engage subject-matter experts and general stakeholders for direct, project-level collaboration, external consulting, and mission-specific panels or workshops. Under this consortium, graduate interns will be exposed to various research topics and opportunities to work with experts and external consortium stakeholders.
