About
Rondo Energy makes the Rondo Heat Battery, a thermal energy storage system that converts intermittent renewable electricity into continuous industrial heat and power. The system heats refractory brick to over 1000°C, storing energy for hours or days and discharging it as superheated air, steam, or electric power at 98% efficiency. It targets industrial customers seeking to decarbonize operations while reducing energy costs.
Problem
Industrial processes require continuous, reliable heat that intermittent renewable energy sources cannot directly provide, leading to ongoing fossil fuel dependency and emissions.
For
Industrial operators and manufacturers seeking low-cost, zero-carbon heat and power
How it works
The Rondo Heat Battery charges using electricity from wind, solar, or the grid, heats refractory brick to 1100–1500°C, and discharges stored heat as process heat, steam, or power 24 hours a day at over 98% efficiency.
