Using its long-duration energy storage technology, power may be kept as thermal energy for up to eight days or more, and then it can be sent back to the grid to satisfy daily, weekly, and hourly needs.
Additionally supplying clean heat for district heating and industrial uses, the Malta system lowers CO2 emissions in industries that are hard to mitigate.
Ramya Swaminathan said: “We are thrilled to have Siemens Energy join our world-class strategic investors, Alfa Laval and Proman, and our other shareholders, such as BEV, Piva, and Chevron. Our partners facilitate and enhance our ability to execute in this rapidly expanding growth market. As a global leader in the power sector, our partners bring unparalleled industry knowledge, technical expertise, and global commercial reach to help accelerate our commercial deployment.”
