Unlocking a more flexible, reliable grid

Antora’s thermal batteries charge quickly and flexibly, consuming low-value and surplus electricity while delivering round-the-clock heat to industrial customers. As a dispatchable, interruptible load, they help grid operators manage grid volatility and congestion while providing new revenue streams to utilities and asset owners. And with multi-day storage duration, Antora’s thermal batteries have the flexibility to avoid consuming electricity during high-demand periods or critical shortages.

Adding new, large loads typically requires significant, multi-year investment in new generation and transmission infrastructure. By drawing power during periods of excess generation, Antora’s thermal batteries make use of existing grid infrastructure to deliver 24/7 heat. This improves efficiency across the grid, avoids costly infrastructure investments, and lowers costs for operators and ratepayers alike.

Antora’s thermal batteries provide a secure, reliable energy foundation for American manufacturers. By helping these industrial facilities tap into existing local electricity production, thermal energy storage keeps dollars in local economies while creating jobs in the manufacturing sector and across rural communities.
