Wärtsilä begins construction of a 50 MW / 100 MWh energy storage system
Through the Gramme 1 project, Wärtsilä and Gramme Storage 1 will support Belgium''s transition toward a more sustainable, efficient, renewable energy system. Construction is now
Brenmiller Europe Sensible heat storage using crushed rock is a cost-effective solution for high-temperature heat storage. This system supports large-scale energy storage of 10–100+ GWh at an incremental cost of $2–4/kWh, suitable for producing steam for electricity, hot water, or industrial hot air.
Sensible solid based thermal energy storage Sensible solid based TES are among the most mature technologies, and several companies propose similar solutions. Sensible TES technologies store heat by changing the temperature of the TES media.
Thermal Energy Storage (TES) technologies are emerging as a game-changing solution to decarbonize heat and balance energy supply & demand in intermittent conditions. Join us as we explore how these technologies are ready to scale, drive cost savings, and make net-zero production achievable.
The implementation of viable short-term thermal energy storage, lasting up to 48 hours, would facilitate the substitution of fossil fuels with industrial waste heat and renewable electricity. HEATERNAL brings together four specialized public research teams focused on prototyping and modeling thermal systems, phase-change materials, and 3D printing.

In this article we describe the commercial systems for storing high-temperature heat for the two Norwegian companies. Both companies predict increasing demand for their solutions. The photo
An example of such an investment is the newly commissioned Vilvoorde Battery Energy Storage System in Belgium, currently the largest of its kind in continental Europe. The history of the
EnergyVille is a collaboration between the Belgian research partners KU Leuven, VITO, imec and UHasselt in the fields of sustainable energy and intelligent energy systems.
The implementation of viable short-term thermal energy storage, lasting up to 48 hours, would facilitate the substitution of fossil fuels with industrial waste heat and renewable electricity.
Last month, grid operators reported a 22% spike in solar curtailment during peak daylight hours. How can the country balance its energy needs while phasing out fossil fuels? The answer lies in advanced
When electricity prices are high, you exploit heat from the storage system. This approach makes it possible to store energy during off-peak, nighttime hours and use it during high-demand
