The Osmotic Power Unit (OPU) is an innovation that can produce competitive, clean and environmentally friendly energy using the natural force of osmosis: A difference in salt concentration in water streams creates a pressure gradient, which can be harnessed for power generation.
The SaltPower OPUs are delivered in containerized modules and generate non-fluctuating baseload power for own consumption or the power grid. Today SaltPower delivers a mobile 20 kW the OPU and will be able to upscale and deliver a 100 kW unit as a direct result of this EIC project.
Already now, when moving out of the demonstration phase, salt power costs only half of state-of-the-art wind power. The electricity generated from our OPU unit will cost 0.021 €/kWh, or approx. only 20% of current average EU market price of 0.10 €/kWh. As production scales and membranes are developed even further, the price of electricity from SaltPowers OPU can be as low as 0.01 €/kWh, equivalent to 1/10th of the EU average. The OPU is built into 40’ containers and can be assembled by a skilled and semi-skilled workforce in a pace where SaltPower can grow and learn while the technology and business mature.
We have demonstrated the technology and the low LCOE in real life through a 20 kW demonstration plant (D20) operated at the Nouryon (formerly AkzoNobel) salt production plant in Denmark in 2018/19. This applied project will upscale the technology to the SaltPower J100 that has the innovativeness for market disruption, not only on the first niche market, but in several markets later.
The European market holds the potential for several thousand plants from SaltPower, who targets a turnover of €41m by 2025 by focusing on the market segment with easiest implementation and biggest value to customers: Salt producers.
