Antora Energy provides zero-carbon heat and power for heavy industry by storing renewable energy as heat using thermal energy storage with carbon blocks as a thermal battery. Excess solar and wind energy is converted into heat and stored, then delivered on demand as electricity or industrial process heat up to 1500°C. This approach targets industries that require large amounts of heat, offering a practical decarbonization option where traditional batteries can’t reach the necessary temperatures or durations. The goal is to scale affordable renewable energy storage for heavy industry, unlocking a large multi-trillion-dollar market opportunity.

What believers are saying

  • ARPA-E awarded $14.5 million in June 2024 to accelerate heat and power product launch.
  • San Jose factory and TPV manufacturing line enable scaled zero-emission production by 2024.
  • Con Edison partnership deploys batteries for New York City's clean heat goals.

What critics are saying

  • Rondo Energy's molten metal batteries operate at cement plants since 2024 with lower costs.
  • Lithium-ion prices at $80/kWh undercut Antora's TPV LCOE in 6-12 months.
  • Fresno pilot shows 15% efficiency drop after 500 cycles, triggering $50M liabilities.

What makes Antora Energy unique

  • Antora stores energy as heat in solid carbon blocks at 2,400°C for multi-day retention.
  • Thermophotovoltaic technology converts glowing carbon light to electricity at over 40% efficiency.
  • Factory-built modular thermal batteries fit shipping container footprints with 15 MWh capacity.

No Solar Energy? No Problem! Gigantic Undersea Cable Will Make It Happen

Sign up for daily news updates from CleanTechnica on email. Or follow us on Google NewsThe Intertubes absolutely lit up earlier today, when the Australian government finally green-lighted the massive, long awaited Australia-Asia Power Link solar energy project. Under the purview of the startup SunCable, AAPowerLink will connect the nation’s vast solar resources to the energy-hungry island of Singapore by undersea cable. The private sector venture may seem quixotic at first glance, but the technology pieces are in place — it’s just a matter of next steps.Solar Energy By (Very) Long Undersea Cable: Not A DreamThe idea of transporting solar energy by undersea cable is a relatively new twist on an old idea. The use of submarine cables for transporting renewable energy is commonplace, partly by virtue of the offshore wind industry.Long undersea cables are also commonplace and they are getting longer, especially in the field of data transmission. The new Meta undersea cable project circumnavigating Africa, for example, is 45,000 kilometers (about 27,961 miles) long
