The ThermalPod® software optimizes charging times based on energy prices. This allows you to buy renewable electricity when it is abundant and cheap. Decoupling the use of electricity from the timing of heat usage provides flexibility to your operations. This flexibility can be valued by operating a flex asset on the electricity network which provides extra potential for revenue of your thermal battery. The ThermalPod® also seamlessly integrates local sources for renewable energy such as solar panels placed on site.
