What is thermal energy storage?

Thermal energy storage comes from storing energy from renewable energies in the form of heat, which in then can be used in district heating systems or be re-converted to electricity through a turbine. The heat can be stored in rocks, water, molten salts, or other phase-changing materials.

How powerful is a molten salt battery in Denmark?

Denmark is now home to one of the most powerful and innovative battery systems in the world—a 1 GWh molten salt battery that can power 100,000 homes for 10 hours.
