"The world’s shift to renewable energy needs a solution to one central challenge: how to store excess solar and wind power for later use. Meanwhile, energy-intensive industries have a challenge of their own: what to do with all of the excess heat they generate.
Kraftblock CEO Martin Schichtel, a chemist by training, believes his German-based company has the answer – a thermal-based storage system."
KRAFTBLOCK is an energy storage system that is able to and definitely will decarbonize industries like:
Steel, Glass or Ceramics.
It will even help renewables to have their break-through in industrial heating. The modular and easily scalable system is based on a newly developed storage material that consists of app.
85% upcycled materials.
It can store up to 1.2 MWh thermal energy at a temperature level up to 1,300 °C.
