Malta represents the future of energy storage. With its grid-scale solutions that can store energy up to 50x longer than typical battery technology, Malta is enabling renewable energy to be used more efficiently and effectively, enhancing grid reliability and resilience, and expediting the transition to a clean energy future.
Clean, co-generated steam is used for district heating or industrial use. Malta's electro-thermal energy storage system is composed using components with a long and proven record in the field. Molten salt is the most mature technology used in thermal storage.
Malta's electro-thermal energy storage system is built upon well-established principles in thermodynamics. When charging (taking electricity from the grid) the system converts electricity to heat, in molten salt, and as cold in a chilled liquid. In these forms, this energy can be efficiently stored for long durations.
Malta's utility scale and inertial component make it uniquely suited for power companies with a focus on resiliency ready to move to long duration today. When coupled with renewables, Malta's thermo-electric energy storage system enables the delivery of 24/7 green energy. Stores energy from any power generation source
The Malta system is an innovative long-duration energy storage system that can store power when it is generated and discharge the power when it is needed.
It is built using proven subsystems deployed around the world today, like heat exchangers, molten-salt and industrial-coolant storage, and turbomachinery. The base Malta plant can discharge 100-MW of clean energy for 10-to-200+ hours. Designed for flexibility, its charge and discharge speeds can be independently tailored to meet an owner's needs.
