The single largest driver of climate change, industry, accounts for about ⅓ of global carbon emissions. But a Bill Gates-backed startup, Antora Energy Inc., offers a potential solution to eliminate over 50% of industrial emissions with its unique approach to decarbonizing the sector – thermal energy storage via solid carbon blocks.
Long duration energy storage is an imperative for Europe's industrial decarbonisation The opinions expressed in this article are those of the author and do not represent in any way the editorial position of Euronews. Europe's industries are diverse, and so are its energy needs.
Global electricity output is set to grow by 50 percent by mid-century, relative to 2022 levels. With renewable sources expected to account for the largest share of electricity generation worldwide in the coming decades, energy storage will play a significant role in maintaining the balance between supply and demand.
To support the global transition to clean electricity, funding for development of energy storage projects is required. Pumped hydro, batteries, hydrogen, and thermal storage are a few of the technologies currently in the spotlight.
Nearer term, however, thermal energy storage technologies appear to be the most feasible and cost-efective solution for decarbonized heat in the "Easy-to-electrify" heat segment with their capability to both provide heat and firm intermittent renewables supply.
Long duration energy storage (LDES) technologies can reduce emissions by storing renewable energy for durations ranging from several hours to days, weeks and even seasons, making them ideal for industrial decarbonisation. They span electrochemical, mechanical, thermal, and chemical solutions.
FIG. 1 Existing applications for long duration electric and thermal energy storage include firming wind and solar for of-grid use, and using renewable energy to decarbonize fossil-fueled industrial processes at 500°C and below through electrification.
