CEO Bruce Anderson Visits "The Future Current" Podcast

OVERVIEW: 247Solar, Inc. was formed in 2015 by solar industry pioneer Bruce Anderson to commercialize the 247Solar Plant™, invented by Wilson Solarpower Corp., using technology originated at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Initial funding was provided by the US Department of Energy, with development assistance from the German Aerospace Center (DLR), WorleyParsons, Fraunhofer Institute, and Saint Gobain. The company has signed agreements to develop and deploy its technology in Morocco, China, the UAE, Sri Lanka, and South Africa. Advanced negotiations continue throughout the world, including in India, Northern Africa, and elsewhere in the Middle East. THE SEEDS OF SOMETHING BIG In 2009, Anderson’s company, Wilson TurboPower, a spinoff of MIT, became convinced that their breakthrough high-efficiency heat exchanger and turbine technologies, invented by mechanical engineering professor-emeritus David Gordon Wilson, would be suited to a new generation of concentrated solar power (CSP) applications. By inserting these technologies into the hardware configuration of a novel approach to CSP, that system’s performance and economic potential could greatly exceed those of other CSP implementations. Preliminary financial analysis showed the company’s approach had the potential, over time, to become among the lowest cost ways to produce power.
