US researchers test a solar receiver at close to 1400°C. Aug 22, 2026 - 10:27 Researchers at GE Aerospace Research and Sandia National Laboratory have successfully fabricated and tested a 3D-printed silicon carbide (SiC) volumetric solar air receiver, achieving a temperature of 1390°C on-sun. The goal of the three-year program, now completed, was a feasibility demonstration of materials, design, fabrication, and testing of a 50 kWth air receiver, with the potential to be scaled up for use in high temperature industrial processes. The research was designed to meet two primary goals: to develop a high-temperature receiver and test it on-sun, and use a design that would enable it to be scaled up. "The other similar ceramic receiver technology that has been tested is that of DLR that can reach temperatures this high," explained Kamala Raghavan, who led the work as the Technology Manager at the Integrated Energy Technologies Office. This was newly created during a major reorganization of the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) announced by the Trump administration in November 2025. There, she headed the team at the new Thermal Energy Systems program, which has replaced SETO, the Solar Energy Technologies Office. Temperatures this high are essential for several solar thermochemistry applications, such as Synhelion's synthetic aviation fuel production in Germany. "Our objective was to advance receiver technology for operation at temperatures exceeding those achieved by the Gen3 supercritical carbon dioxide power cycle," noted Raghavan. "Consequently, the volumetric air receiver designs were developed for high-temperature industrial process heat applications, functioning at significantly higher temperatures compared to Gen3. Scientists at GE Aerospace Research have successfully incorporated silicon carbide ceramic matrix composite - CMC - material into the development of a modular volumetric air receiver, optimizing its performance at elevated temperatures. This innovation enables concentrating solar thermal technology to serve high-temperature industrial processes. Solar heat is attractive especially for processing plants that are in remote locations and demonstration of this receiver technology is a big leap forward." During the three-year program, the GE Aerospace Research team led by Dr. Reza Sarrafi-Nour, designed and built a 50 kWth receiver, which was then tested on-sun by a team of scientists led by Dr. Ken Armijo at the National Solar Thermal Test Facility (NSTTF) at Sandia National Laboratory. Sandia designed and built the overall system with the receiver for the final testing. The design is highly modular to enable an easy scale-up. "All the 'elements in the receiver - the pre-heater wedges, the central absorber unit, everything is assembled. It's not a monolithic receiver, so that the design can be scaled up easily, and what we pushed for was having the design and fabrication technique which can help us achieve modularity, and scale-up," she explained. The fabrication process is binderjet additive manufacturing. For this 50 kWth test, the receiver was approximately 18 inches across. The small size of the receiver made focusing the heliostats crucial. "The accuracy is in millirads, so it's not very trivial to get the heliostats aimed at such a small region to achieve the required temperature without destroying the receiver," Raghavan noted. "This was among of the biggest challenges once we put this receiver on the tower - it is not trivial to focus the solar flux on the receiver. It took about two days of work by Sandia researchers to make sure we got the right flux profile on the receiver." GE Aerospace funding. The SiC CMC material itself is developed out of research begun by GE Aerospace. This SiC CMC material technology is the same as that used in the GE aero engines. GE aerospace was funded to use this material and fabrication technology to develop critical lattice structures used in the receiver design, seen here in Fig 3. Several different lattice designs were tested at laboratory scale after which the GE team converged upon one which had structural stability, good thermal properties for final on-sun testing. GE Aerospace brought their expertise in SiC CMC technology and has helped develop this high temperature receiver for appilcations in industrial processes. Originally in 2022, the industry partner was Heliogen, a US concentrated solar startup that went under, but DOE helped the team find a new partner for testing so that GE aerospace could continue the receiver development. It was important for DOE to continue the work because materials that can withstand these temperatures have already proven their performance in aerospace applications. "The GE Aerospace Research team was interested in using silicon carbide materials for various other applications," said Raghavan. The three-year project was at Technology Readiness Level of three (TRL 3) out of 9 when they began in 2022. With all the testing they have done, including now on-sun at Sandia, they have moved the project to TRL 5. Raghavan said however, that no further work is currently planned for funding the scale-up efforts - for now. "As a federal funding agency, we solicit proposals, and we funded this project with GE and Sandia," she said. "It's for interested CSP and process industries to discuss with GE Aerospace and Sandia and take it further. Our office invests in R&D and feasibility demonstrations and accelerates technology towards commercialization." To gain interest from industry, the ceramic receiver technology would need to reach TRL 9, which means further scaling up and on-sun testing. Nevertheless, GE Aerospace and Sandia are pleased with the outcomes. The results validate the materials, design and performance tests of the receiver. At the start of the project, the key question was whether a receiver using a modular lattice design of silicon carbide could perform reliably during several hours of on-sun testing. The researchers confirmed that it can.

GE Aerospace stock has risen 33.4% over the past year, outpacing the S&P 500's 20.6%. However, the company faces margin pressures from engine investments that are not expected to ease until 2028. In Q2 2026, Commercial Engines & Services margin fell 160 basis points to 27.3%, driven by installed engine growth and GE9X investments. Management expects these losses to peak by 2028, when LEAP services margins should align with the total services portfolio. Supply constraints also pose challenges. Spare parts delinquencies grew 20% sequentially in Q2 2026, despite sales rising over 25% year-over-year. Management cited supply, not demand, as the limiting factor. The stock's 7.3 price-to-sales multiple sits at the 95th percentile of its 10-year range, leaving little room for execution errors.
Cognition CEO denies claim that SpaceX tried to buy AI firm. August 20, 2026 CEO Scott Wu has disputed the claim that Elon Musk's SpaceX attempted to acquire AI coding startup Cognition, adding that no such talks took place Elon Musk's SpaceX attempted to acquire AI coding startup Cognition in an attempt to catch up with OpenAI, Anthropic and Google during the AI race, according to industry sources familiar with the matter. However, Cognition CEO Scott Wu disputes this claim, saying that the story was inaccurate and that Cognition is "not for sale". He adds that Cognition at no point had been in talks with SpaceX. SpaceX's claim comes just a few days after it acquired AI coding startup Cursor for US$60bn, a deal which was recently completed. The aerospace company also acquired Elon's own company xAI earlier this year and recently, SpaceX went public with its IPO. When the company was listed on the Nasdaq stock exchange, it was valued at a record-breaking US$2.2tn, making it the largest IPO in history. SpaceX's acquisition strategy. SpaceX's interest in acquiring a company like Cognition is unsurprising. AI-assisted coding has become one of the most lucrative ways to monetise AI technologies. Anthropic's rise, partly fuelled by Claude Code's success, is proof of that. SpaceX's acquisition of Cursor shows the aerospace company has set its sights on matching Anthropic's industrial growth. Recently, Cursor and SpaceX jointly released Grok 4.6, a new model that scores higher on coding benchmarks and complex multi-step agentic tasks. Had SpaceX acquired Cognition and its coding agent Devin, it would have found another way to further its push into the AI coding boom and enhanced its position as a competitor for enterprise customers. Industry reports say the deal talks are no longer happening, but that both SpaceX and Cognition are still discussing the possibility of working together. It's possible Cognition could use SpaceX's computing capacity, which SpaceX is currently selling to other AI players like Anthropic until SpaceX requires that capacity for its own operations. Cognition has previously partnered with other large firms, including Mercedes-Benz Group AG and GE Aerospace. Business relationships like these could prove valuable to SpaceX, potentially bringing in new customers from other industries. Scott did not address Cognition's existing relationship with SpaceX when disputing the acquisition claims. [Cognition's US$1bn financing "allows Business Chief to stay independent and continue as an independent business, which is really important for Business Chief. Scott Wu, CEO of Cognition * SpaceX recently acquired AI coding startup Cursor for US$60bn * When SpaceX was listed on the Nasdaq stock exchange, it was valued at a record-breaking US$2.2tn, making it the largest IPO in history * Cognition is currently valued at US$26bn, and in May raised a US$1bn round at a US$25bn post-money valuation * Windsurf CEO Varun Mohan was acqui-hired by Google DeepMind in a US$2.4bn deal for talent and licensing rights * Following its acquisition of Windsurf, Cognition laid off 30 employees and offered buyouts to the remaining 200 Windsurf employees No interest in selling the business. Cognition - currently valued at US$26bn - remains one of the world's largest independent AI software coding startups that hasn't been acquired by a major AI model firm. In May, the firm raised a US$1bn round at a US$25bn post-money valuation and is currently in talks for a new round of funding at a US$40bn valuation. Last year, Cognition gained traction in the AI industry following its acquisition of remaining assets from competitor firm Windsurf. The then Windsurf CEO, Varun Mohan, was acqui-hired by Google DeepMind in a US$2.4bn deal for talent and licensing rights. Following the acquisition, Cognition laid off 30 employees and offered buyouts to the remaining 200 Windsurf employees. The employees who remained faced strict operational expectations, including a more than 80-hour workweek and a total of six working days in the office. Discussing the firm's work and business strategies, Scott says he has no interest in selling the business, adding that its US$1bn financing allows the firm to "stay independent and continue as an independent business".
