Hermes Energy

HERMES (Highly Efficient Super Critical ZERO eMission Energy System) aims to contribute to the renewable future by pioneering a zero-emission, highly efficient directly fired supercritical power system, operating in closed loop on renewable fuels.

The overall objective of the project is to assess the performance of HERMES system operating on a variety of liquid/gaseous renewable fuels to provide electricity with an efficiency above 65%, with net-zero GHG emission of other pollutants. The liquid and gaseous fuels that the system will be operating on will be methanol or hydrogen.
