Kyoto's thermal battery enables load shifting by storing energy from renewable sources when it is abundant, and storing it for later use. Kyoto Group’s thermal battery (HeatCube) represent innovative, low-cost and modular solutions for thermal energy storage and can use multiple renewable energy sources to heat molten salt to over 500 degrees Celsius. The high-temperature salt is then used to produce steam or a combination of electricity and hot water for industrial use and as input to district heating systems.
