Its activities focus on several key areas: solar energy, network management, storage including batteries and hydrogen in a logic of energy efficiency and circular economy. en-US https://liten.cea.fr/cea-tech/liten/english/PublishingImages/Home/CEA-Liten-Logo.png https://liten.cea.fr/cea-tech/liten/english https://www.cea.fr/cea-tech/liten/english/Pages/Medias/News/2025/Polymer-derived-ceramic-coatings.aspx Over the last decade or so, CEA-Liten has been developing composite coatings intended for various applications, including thermal protection, fire barriers, and resistance to erosion and chemical corrosion. ACHIEF (Innovative high performance Alloys and Coatings for HIghly EFficient intensive energy processes, 2020 – 2024, grant 958374), an EU project coordinated by CEA, has demonstrated the benefits of these materials in industrial applications of resistance to acid corrosion.

Launched in 2021, the project is nearing completion. Let’s put the spotlight on this outstanding technological and human adventure, which won an Innovation Award at EUSEW 2024.

The manufacturing of solar panels generates significant impacts and, as the current design do not anticipate the dismantling step, the panels are notoriously difficult to recycle at the end of their service life.

The innovation, which leverages breakthrough digital design capabilities and 3D printing, could open the door to new, customizable parts that offer exceptional properties like adaptive behavior. The potential uses for the new technology in the automotive industry, always on the lookout for solutions to improve the in-cabin experience, are promising.

Our teams at INES have therefore set themselves the ambitious challenge of reducing its current consumption from 35mg/Wp to just 5mg/Wp by 2030.

HIP can be used to post-process parts manufactured using conventional casting and powder metallurgy processes. It can also be used to sinter powders, effectively compacting them, and to assemble solid parts by diffusion welding. HIP, once reserved for the nuclear and aeronautics industries, is now making inroads into the renewable energy market, where it is helping support the energy transition.
