A thermal energy battery is a physical structure used for the purpose of storing and releasing thermal energy. Such a thermal battery (a.k.a. TBat) allows energy available at one time to be temporarily stored and then released at another time. The basic principles involved in a thermal battery occur at the atomic level of matter, with energy being added to or taken from either a solid mass or a liquid volume which causes the substance''s temperature to change. Some thermal bat

They are scalable from 6.8kWh to 20.5kWh, and include a modern smartphone app so you can monitor energy
Thermal stores are an alternative to battery storage – but instead of electricity, they store thermal energy. Thermal energy storage means heating or cooling a medium to use the energy when needed. This could be as simple as using a water tank for heat storage, where the water is heated at times when energy is plentiful.
How our technology changes heat into green energy.
