About us

History:

SRB Energy started because the interest from CERN, Dr. Cristoforo Benvenuti and Segura Group to develop the patent of the solar thermal panel, invented by Dr. Cristoforo Benvenuti.

Segura Group joined SRB with the objective to manufacture the Solar Thermal Collector, and contribute to society the know-how reached in the automotive sector production, obtaining 91% of societies shares.
Currently, SRB Energy has two facilities: SRB Energy in Valencia and SRB Energy Research Sarl, this last one has the headquarters and laboratories in Geneva, in the main CERN facility.

At the beginning of 2008, the construction of the production plant in Almussafes started.

In the middle of 2009, the research and delevopment of the collector ends and the mass production started.

Shareholders:

Segura Group is the first level supplier of the main car manufacturers. 5 production centers. 1. Engineering firm dedicated to the design of car parts. Main clients: Ford, Skóda, Volkswagen, Audi, Volvo, Land Rover, Seat.
Dr. Cristoforo Benvenuti Doctor in physics and former director of CERN is the Inventor  of the solar thermal panel UHV.  Nowadays he leads the R&D and Innovation activities of SRB Energy Research Sarl.

Technology Transfer from CERN:

The patent of the ultra high vacuum (UHV) solar collector is a technology transfer form CERN and was perhaps the most important achievement in the recent years.
For the product manufacture, there is knowledge transfer of: Ultra High Vacuum (UHV), Getter Pump, Selective treatment, Sealed-Metal glass, among others.
