Description: Antora Energy uses excess renewable electricity to heat up blocks of solid carbon. These thermal batteries reach temperatures above 1500°C. This heat can be safely stored in the blocks for days on end until it’s needed to power 24/7 industrial processes. The industrial sector accounts for a quarter of global emissions and the majority of that stems from the need for heat.
