ExoMatter wins Innovation Radar Prize 2025
The Sulphurreal project member ExoMatter has won the 2025 Innovation Radar Prize. It celebrates the most promising EU-funded innovations with the potential to make a global impact.
The SULPHURREAL project demonstrates an innovative approach to the direct storage of concentrated solar energy in solid elemental sulphur. The basic idea is to use concentrated solar energy to cyclically drive a series of chemical reactions that interconvert sulphuric acid and sulphur. The cycle can also be operated using sulphuric acid and sulphur feedstocks from existing large-scale industrial processes.

We’re inviting public and expert input on Sulphurreal – an innovative energy solution combining sulphur-based systems with Concentrated Solar Power (CSP).
The Sulphurreal consortium held its 24-months project meeting in Patras, Greece. The meeting, hosted by the Department of Chemical Engineering of the University of Patras, focused on updates and developments in the project’s key objectives.
The article „SO₂ disproportionation for a sulphur-based thermochemical cycle studied in an operando Raman batch reactor” has been published in the journal Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP).
The Sulphurreal project participants held their 21-month project meeting. They met online to update each other on the current status of the various tasks.
The paper “Computational Investigation of the Isomers Formed from the Reaction S₂ + O₂” has been published in the “Journal of Sulfur Chemistry”.
