Abstract
Hydrogen is a promising energy carrier for transportation, domestic and industrial applications. Nowadays hydrogen is consumed basically by the chemical industry, but in long term its demand is expected to grow significantly due to emerging markets. Hence production of hydrogen with sustainable methods is a relevant issue. This work presents a review of the different CSP- aided thermochemical processes for hydrogen and syngas production. For each process, some relevant solar-tested reactor prototypes are described. In a second part, the developed solar furnaces for investigation of thermochemical process are also discussed. In addition, relevant research on hydrogen or syngas production in solar tower installations is presented. Finally the current challenges of the technology and the process for its future commercialization are also analyzed.
