Thermal batteries aren't a future technology any more.
80 projects worldwide, 51 operating. Half of those came online in 2025 or 2026.
Mostly 1–100 MWh, but Antora (5 GWh) & Chinese molten salt plants (up to 2 GWh) show what's possible.

Listened to this podcast today with Antora Energy on decarbonizing industrial heat. Great discussion on what’s needed to be cost-competitive with gas. I was a fan of thermal batteries already, but now I’m even more convinced. 🔌💡
Today on Volts: storing electricity as heat! It's so... hot right now. I talk with the head of a company making a thermal battery that can store renewable energy as heat & release it as either heat or electricity. It involves a glowing rock. Love this one.
