Bronze Sponsor: Exergy3
Exergy3 has developed innovative ultra-high temperature thermal energy storage technology that is a game-changer in the journey to net zero. Taking green electricity from the grid or a renewable energy source, our system converts it into thermal energy and stores it at ultra-high temperatures of up to 1200 °C. This energy is then discharged as hot gas to power thermal processes between 200-1000 °C. An affordable, flexible decarbonisation solution across several sectors, our technology is easily adapted to process requirements with adjustable charging power and output pressures/temperatures. Made from low-cost materials Exergy3 modules are energy dense, long-lasting, and easily installed.
