Researchers at KIT developed a 100 kWh, 700°C liquid metal heat storage system, potentially decarbonizing industrial processes.
Researchers at Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) developed a liquid metal-based heat storage system that stores 100 kWh of heat, a world first, and operates at temperatures up to 700°C. The high thermal conductivity system reduces energy needs for production temperatures, potentially decarbonizing industrial processes as 90% of their fuel sources are currently fossil-based.
