s04e03 - Keeping the Heat On: Antora Energy’s Thermal Batteries Plan to Solve For Industrial Heat
Manage episode 415579023 series 2659759
In this discussion from SOSV's 2024 EarthDay+ sessions (Apr 22-26, 2024), Andrew Ponec, Co-founder and CEO of Antora Energy, discusses with Casey Crownhart, Climate Reporter at MIT Technology Review, the challenges and innovations in industrial heating.
Antora Energy is electrifying heavy industry with thermal energy storage and raised over 200 million dollars in funding.
Ponec explains that industrial heat accounts for a significant portion of global emissions, primarily from fossil fuels.
Antora Energy initially explored various energy storage solutions before developing thermal batteries, leveraging cheap and abundant renewable energy sources.
These batteries efficiently store and provide heat, aiming to replace fossil fuel dependency in industries.
The conversation also covers the economic and safety aspects of thermal batteries, their integration into industrial applications, and the potential expansion into high-temperature processes like cement and steel production.
