Thermal battery ready for construction

Our first commercial thermal battery is in production. It will be made “only” of steel and the high-performance contrete Heatcrete®. This radical new technology helps industrial players, energy companies and various types of power plants to operate more energy-efficiently, more effectively (i.e. profits!) and to reduce CO2. Next, it will be transported to our Mebin manufacturing site in Europoort, Port of Rotterdam, for casting.

This view shows 63 thermal elements inside our TO6-7×9 steel cassette. Made of carbon steel piping, that works under pressure, and spirowound steel casing, they’re designed to be used with thermal oil as Heat Transfer Fluid (HTF). You can also see the spacers inside the spirowound casing, grabbing the piping, and ensuring that the piping remains in the right position during the next steps to follow: transport, casting and construction.

ENERGYNEST, the global leader in thermal storage, has signed a commercial agreement with LEONHARD KURZ, a world-leading family business in thin-film technology, to implement an innovative power-to-heat solution with thermal storage.

Companies that do not electrify their processes risk rising costs, regulatory hurdles, and competitive disadvantages. Power-to-heat offers an efficient solution to reduce energy costs and ensure the future viability of production.

Despite its high recycling rate, the paper industry faces major challenges, particularly in the energy-intensive production process. Thermal energy storage systems can play a key role here by efficiently utilising renewable energy and supporting the implementation of sustainable production methods.
