Electric Firebricks: Decarbonizing Heavy Industry With Thermal Batteries

Electrically Conductive FirebricksElectrified Thermal Solutions, an MIT spinout, has developed an electrically conductive firebrick that stores heat at high enough temperatures to power industrial processes. This system, which can tap into cheap, clean electricity during off-peak hours, is scalable and poised to decarbonize heavy industries by leveraging zero-carbon electricity sources. Industrial Heat Generation Manufacturing industries like cement, […]
