The transition to a sustainable and decarbonized energy system is one of the most pressing challenges of the 21st century. In this context, EAG has strengthened its strategic positioning through: Engineering and consulting with specific experience in renewable hydrogen, ammonia, and e-methanol projects, spanning over 25 years and more than 3,000 megawatts Participation in energy […]

The COMBATE project, supported by the Centre for Technological Development and Innovation (CDTI) through the 2025 Science and Innovation Missions Programme (File No. MIG-20251019), has as its main objective the research of innovative technological pathways for the production of sustainable synthetic fuels, produced safely, more efficiently, and cost[1]effectively, aimed at the maritime transport sector. Through […]

Efficient valorization of CO2 and bio-waste for long-term energy storage using a microwave plasma torch and quenching using the reverse Boudouard Reaction. EAG (Empresarios Agrupados – GHESA) continues in the development of sustainable solutions for long-term energy storage. The EffiTorch Project uses a microwave plasma torch and rapid quenching based on the reverse Boudouard reaction […]

EAG (Empresarios Agrupados – GHESA) has signed a long-term strategic agreement with Westinghouse Electric Company to accelerate the global deployment of AP1000® technology, reinforcing its commitment to the expansion of nuclear energy as a safe, efficient, and low-carbon source. This agreement enables EAG to provide specialized engineering services from Spain, leveraging its highly qualified team, […]

All the parties introduced their achievement since the last Progress Meeting and it was nice to see that, important milestones were achieved although some opened the door to new unplanned activities. Designing and building a prototype is something that usually overflows any forecast you may make at the beginning. This project is funded by the […]

The supporting structure for the reactor, the plasma torch and the expansion chamber has been discussed with TEKNIKER. The conclusion is that a reliable, versatile and robust steel structure is needed to provide a solid hanger for the whole assembly. Linked to the supporting structure is the design of the containment that will cover the […]

Candidate materials for the design and construction of DEMO and future fusion reactors will be irradiated at the IFMIF-DONES facility. The concept of this facility is based on neutron radiation generated by the nuclear stripping reaction between 40 MeV deuterons and lithium. Meeting the requirements for the lithium target—provided by the Li systems—poses significant challenges […]

With a minimum delay, the design is considered frozen and the process to start the procurement begins. Several important issues are not completely solved but we keep in mind that deadlines of the project must be respected as delaying others has to be avoided. This project is funded by the European Union and involves leading […]

Once the design has been considered mature enough an unofficial design review was performed to decide what would be the next steps. The outline of the upper part of the master prototype (including the induction unit) was declared closed and so the rest of items, like the supporting structure for the torch and the expansion […]

It was a good opportunity to visualize how all the beneficiaries were progressing with their respective scopes of work. It was great not just to see the actual progress of all the activities but the implication of all the actors aligned to push in the same direction. This project is funded by the European Union […]
